In Dutch companies a deadlock situation is detrimental for business.  A deadlock refers to the situation where there is a tie in voting which blocks any decision to be made.

A deadlock often arises at shareholders’ meetings and at board decisions. Especially when there are only two shareholders (with equal share The portion of registered capital of a private or public limited company
