Folder Permissions

I work for Citi and my team will be handling requests for permissioning shares for other admin groups. The only problem is that the admin do not want to give us rights to read the shares etc… This makes it very difficult to know what group membership to provide, as my team is unable to view the group memberships of the shares.

My question. Is there a certain type of access (folder permission) that will allow my team to view memberships of the shares and not open/edit the files within?
