Description

A corporation whose shares are held by a single shareholder or a closely-knit group of shareholders (such as a family) is known as a close corporation. The shares of stock are not traded publicly. Many of these types of corporations are small firms that in the past would have been operated as a sole proprietorship or partner¬ship, but have been incorporated in order to obtain the advantages of limited liability or a tax benefit or both. A disclaimer is a denial or renunciation of liability. A disclaimer may apply to a denial of responsibility for another's claim and/or may be a statement of non-responsibility.
