Limited Liability Company

SMARTLY
Limited Liability Company: A hybrid of the other types of multi-owner
companies, which is a separate legal entity from its owner(s).
 The owners of an LLC are known as members.
 Often, an LLC doesn't need a formal set of rules. They are designed
to have less formality to facilitate a flat organizational structure.
 The company ends when a member retires, quits, or dies.

Articles of Organization: A document that needs to be filed with a state


agency to start an LLC.

Members can delegate management authority to one person, who becomes


the managing member.

investment.

Forming an LLC has several requirements, including:


• filing articles of organization
• creating a solid operating agreement
