Abstract
Nearing the end of this study, it is time to reflect on whether the goals we set for ourselves at the beginning of our research have been reached.

The specific objective was the study of conditions that explain the existence, stability and viability of the large Belgian holding company, the financial institution through which complex multicom- pany systems control an intermarket network.
