Elektrim
Polish stock company
Elektrim SA, is a Polish public company trading since 1992 on the Warsaw Stock Exchange, and is the result of the privatization of the former PHZ Elektrim. In the first period after privatization, Elektrim SA conducted very extensive and diversified activities through more than 140 associated companies (with businesses ranging from turbines to agricultural production), but this activity was reorganized from 1999.
Elektrim SA operates essentially as a holding company. Its most valuable assets (Elektrim Telekomunikacja, Zespół Elektrowni Pątnów-Adamów-Konin) are separate entities (companies), to a significant extent, however, supported financially by the parent (by way of shareholder loans, guarantees, and safeguards provided for the assets of the parent).
Elektrim Group employs several thousand people (of whom 48 are employed directly at Elektrim SA).
Elektrim SA holds directly 0.39% of ZE PAK shares, and through its subsidiary Embud, an additional 1.16%. Embud also owns 9.08% of shares in Cyfrowy Polsat.

Why this record matters
A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Elektrim”, the useful work is to connect “polish stock company” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.
The record creator and administrative purpose are central evidence, because official documentation reflects both action and institutional priorities. The source revision retrieved here is dated Nov 3, 2024. The linked authority identifier is Q5358769. VIAF identifies the subject as 303354371. 1 of 3 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1992 and 1999.
Institutional narratives can privilege the records that survived while minimizing voices that were never formally collected. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
