Types Of Organisations
Overzicht
From a one-person street-food stall to a multinational listed on the stock exchange, businesses come in many shapes. The legal structure a business chooses affects who owns it, who controls it, how it raises finance, and what happens if things go wrong. Choosing the right form of ownership is one of the first and most important decisions any entrepreneur makes.
In this lesson you will compare sole traders, partnerships, private and public limited companies, public corporations, franchises, social enterprises and multinationals. You will learn the meaning of limited and unlimited liability, examine why businesses change their legal structure as they grow, and evaluate the advantages and drawbacks of each form of ownership.
