Russian term or phrase: в пользу
Одобрить решение выпуска погашаемых привилегированных акций компании А ***в пользу*** компании Б (прямо или косвенно), а также выкупа доли существующего акционера.

Насколько я понимаю, имеется в виду просто "целевой" выпуск акций, которые предназначаются одной компании. Я пишу просто "for", но, может быть, есть другие варианты?
