Portuguese term or phrase: as acções podem ser ao portador e nominativas representadas por titulo
The phrase is found in a shareholders agreement, and I cant seem to get the right wording. I have tried 'the shares may be issued to bearer and nominee representatives in title'. However I have my doubts as to the correctness thereof.

Explanation:
The pieces of paper are "shares" not "stocks" and they cannot be bearer (without a name) and ordinary (with a name) at the same time.

Depending on the context my suggusted wording may or may not word
