English translation:obtain (purchase) a financial interest
Explanation:
Here, I feel this is stronger than just showing an interest (which is almost at the level of being curious) but is more to do with establishing a financial interest in other companies (by means of capital or debt instruments).
See the description of Clausen Rør AS in reference one and the opening paragraph of reference two.
