Owned, operated and controlled by members, a cooperative is a distinct form of the corporate form of business.

The primary advantage of the corporate form of business organization is that the stockholders (owners) are not personally liable for the debts of the organization, and in most cases are not responsible for the liability that occurs through the corporation’s business activities.

A limited partner has taken steps to limit their liability in the partnership. This agreement must be in writing. Also, limited partners may not take an active role in managing the partnership.
