build up / increase of capital stock Explanation: In general "build up" could be a variation. Aufstockung, has something to with "stock". "Accumulation" is another near synonym that might serve. But if it concerns a company then "increase of capital stock" is the only correct choice. Sch�fer / Oxford / |
