… allocated …
As in, "1/20th of net profit allocated to legal reserves" until the latter reach 10% of share capital; or "alloted", "appropriated", etc., makes no difference which verb.
Noun-for-noun translation is almost certainly the wrong approach here.
Notice that the asked phrase is not a complete sentence in French. What is the context? Is it a bullet point in a list of the company's accounting policies? Is it a line item in a table, with a figure following?
Either way, in English we'd surely use a verb.
Indeed, 'dotation' is frequently one of those words to leave out in EN translation. For example, dotation aux amortissements = depreciation and amortisation [expense]; dotations aux dépréciations = impairment [losses].

: I see no problem with noun-for-noun translation: the ST appears to be a heading and the noun works perfectly well

No, not perfectly well. Better to make the important noun phrase (1/20th of net profit) the subject of the sentence and let a verb do the work of 'dotation'. *Especially* in a heading.
