increase in charter capital


Explanation:
I would always translate устав etc. as "charter", but not everybody does! I'd go with the rest of the text on fund vs capital.

William Butler's Russian-English Legal Dictionary published by Simmonds & Hill & Зерцапо gives "charter fund". If your client wants to understand Russian law and gets a copy of the translation of the Civil Code (published by the same people), he will find lots of unfamiliar terms, and calling things "articles of assocation" and "authorised capital" will simply confuse.

Well in some cases, I do simply transliterate: oblast, prospekt, shosse. This isn't an all or nothing issue: there are compromises, and it all depends on the source document and target audience.

There are two translators of the Civil Code - I know how Butler translates, but I haven't seen the translation by Maggs, and at 300USD I probably won't. If anyone has it, please let us know how he translates устав!

Well, if you're using "authorized" already, then there's not a lot of choice. If you were writing a note for investors, I might well go for that myself. On the other hand, in translating formal documents, such as the charter itself, I would use "charter". This argument will run and run!

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thank you David. I totally agree with your comment about 'poor me' in choosing the right answer. Especially if they differ in choice of word within the term which could be used interchangeably... Therefore, I resorted to such things as timing of an answer and the fact that 'authorized ' figures already in my doc. It's not completely fair [grading], but what can i do, the situation calls for it. Thank you so much for your help.

neutral  Dmitry Golovin: charter according to English law is устав общественной, некоммерческой организации (колледжа и т.п.), устав коммерческой организации - Articles of Association - just because we pretend to translate it into English and be understood correctly
9 mins
  -> Well I said not everybody agreed! This is not English law, this is Russian law, so why pretend it's English?
agree  Dorene Cornwell: This is my first reflex as well but....

neutral  Vladimir Dubisskiy: respectfully disagree with your concept, dear David, (confusion etc.); if fllow your thought we have to put "ustavnoj fund" (just because it's a "Russian" law) :-)))
