How to use "Holdover" in context?
A "holdover" is a term used in economics to describe a situation where an organization's assets, liabilities, or employee numbers remain unchanged from when it was closed, but its management and operations have changed. This can be due to a merger, acquisition, or closure. In some cases, the company may still be in the same location, with the same employees, but under a different name.
