You are well informed. *Corporatocracy* is the correct term.
The misconception exists because when Mussolini talked, in Italian, about "corporativismo", in English it was translated as *corporatism* which in English sounds similar to "corporation". So all the imbeciles in the English speaking world started to think that it's about giving power to corporations.
Corporatism is the system in which representatives of labor, employers, and the state (the latter representing the collective interests of the nation) come together to negotiate and agree the conditions of employment and economic activities. It's Mussolini's way to overcome the class warfare theorized by Marx, which in capitalism is resolved by the free market.
So ironically capitalism is closer to Marx than fascism is, even in the economy.
