Bus/Financial - Finance (general)
French term or phrase: loger
"L'ensemble de nos engagements, toutes formes confondues (titres, crédits, engagements hors bilan) tant au niveau des sociétés holding que des sociétés opérationnelles ayant été logé dans le [consortium], nous sommes confrontés à des difficultés pratiques de fonctionnement au jour le jour qu'il convient de surmonter."

I know this should be obvious but I'm just not coming up with the right term.

agree  Alan Boydell: By the way, is it just me or does 'logé' not seem to agree 'en genre et en nombre' with anything at all. Then again, it's way late over here in France. Maybe my eyes are going.

  -> not sure if it needs es to tell you the truth..probably
agree  David Sirett: ...or perhaps simply placed. 'logé' agrees with 'ensemble', comma would be useful after 'opérationnelles'.

agree  Simon Oliver: I agree with david: it's all to do with the placing of the comma...

housed


Explanation:
housed or 'temporarily housed' in the [consortium] is my preference; 'parked' doesn't go so well with the context
