Dutch term

marktaandeelbepaling

Dutch to English Bus/Financial Marketing / Market Research
Context:

"Voorts geeft KPN aan dat ook vraagtekens bij de marktaandeelbepaling kunnen worden gezet als gevolg van het feit dat omzetgegevens onvoldoende betrouwbaar zijn vanwege bundeling met andere diensten."

I am especially doubting about the meaning of "bepaling" in Dutch.

Discussion

solejnicz (asker) Feb 25, 2012:
It was the specific meaning here of "bepaling" in Dutch which troubled me. So you're right, I could have posted it as a Dutch-Dutch question as well. Does this matter a lot, after all?
writeaway Feb 25, 2012:
the meaning? or is the problem of finding out how to translate it into English? Dutch is your native language after all. If understanding the source text is a problem, translating it into a foreign language may prove very difficult. There is also a Dutch-Dutch language pair.

DETERMINATION... of market share

OPTA regulates telecom markets. The actions of the various market particpants are judged based on, among other things, market share. Because market share can be calculated in several different ways - e.g. revenue, profit, products/services sold, etc. - the manner in which this is DETERMINED becomes particularly importnat to those parties being judged. It would appear that KPN is questioning the marktaandeelbepaing (-methodiek) - ie. the (method) of determination of market share.
Example sentence:

Je kunt vraagtekens zetten bij de methode van marktaandeelbepaling.

disagree Kitty Brussaard : Dat is niet wat hier bedoeld wordt. Het gaat hier om (de moeilijkheid van) het bepalen/vaststellen van het marktaandeel van diensten die gebundeld met andere diensten op de markt worden gebracht.s
