  -> Thank you & gracias for your opinion, Victoria! :) That was the way I got it :) http://www.answers.com/universality&r=67

neutral  Marcelo González: universality does not sound very idiomatic in this context. Notice that the first site is based in Africa and the second one in Luxemburg (not exactly the US, UK, Australia, Canada or New Zealand).

totality


Explanation:
Si bien el término "universality" pueda tener alguna acepción en inglés, pienso que con incluir "totality" se da a entender bastante bien. En el ámbito legal-societario se utiliza mucho este término. Majority no se aplica en este caso porque majority se refiere a una mayoría y no a la totalidad de miembros de una sociedad. Saludos.

representa la universalidad
represents the entire group (of shareholders)


Explanation:
Though the "totality" of shareholders might also be a good option (depending on your target audience), "the entire group of shareholders" is the type of common, everyday language that might be heard more often (at least here in the US).
