I depends Explanation: ...and the supervisory board has warned of the possibility that capital gains could be capped [limited] in the face of extraordinary developments. The question is what they mean by Wertzuwachs. A rise in the stock would be 'capital gains', a higher profit would be an 'increase in profits' and an overall growth in the business would be 'growth prospects' |
