TEXT E
LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY (LLC)
The LLC is a relatively new type of hybrid business structure that is now permissible in US. It is designed to provide the limited liability features of a corporation and the tax efficiency and operational flexibility of a partnership. Formation of LLC is more complex and formal than that of a general partnership.
The owners are members, and the duration of the LLC is usually determined when the organization papers are filed. The time limit can be continued if desired by a vote of the members at expiry date (the time of expiration). LLC's must not have more than two of the four characteristics that define corporations:
Limited liability to the extent of assets;
Continuity of life;
Centralization of management; and
Free transferability of ownership interests.
