Finnish term or phrase: alistus- / rinnakkaisomistus
About a parent company's ownership of subsidiaries.

"Omistusperusteisesti konsernin rakenne pitää sisällään osia sekä alistuskonsernista että rinnakkaiskonsernista. Emolla on sekä välillistä (alistettua) että välitöntä (rinnakkais-) omistusta."

subsidiary and parallel ownership
Explanation:
A rough translation might read as follows:

"On the basis of what it owns, the structure of the company includes (certain) elements of subsidiary and parallel companies. The parent company owns (subsidiary companies) indirectly and(parallel companies) directly."
I am not certain if the term "parallel" is right. My bookmarks are misbehaving!

After Anita\'s and Yngve\'s suggestions, I would re-phrase translation as follows:
The ownership structure of a company basically involves certain elements of subsidiary and co-owned companies.
The parent company owns subsidiary companies directly and co-owned companies indirectly.
