- Partnership – This is owned by two or more individual who agreed to contribute money and property to engage in business transaction. The partners are the liable individuals for all the business debts and obligation. But the liability of each partner depends on whether a partner is a capitalist, industrialist or limited partner.
- Corporation – A business entity owned by shareholders. In this kind of business structure, there is separate personality between the shareholder and the corporation. The shareholder cannot be held liable for the debts and obligations of the corporation.
Yet, when such separate personality doctrine is used by the corporation in fraud of its creditors, the shareholder can be held liable under the doctrine of piercing the veil of corporate entity. This means that the creditor can sue the shareholder if such separate personality doctrine is used to escape its liability from its creditors.
