PUBLIC LIMITED COMPANY

DEFINATION: A public limited company is a voluntary association of members that are incorporated and,
therefore has a separate legal existence and the liability of whose members is limited.Public limited
companies are listed on the stock exchange where it’s share/stocks are traded publicly.

CHARACTERISTICS:

1. A company must have a minimum of seven members but there is no limit as regards the maximum
number.
2. The shares of a company are freely transferable and that too without the prior consent of other
shareholders or subsequent notice to the company.
3. Its formation, working and it’s winding up all its activities are strictly governed by rules, laws, and
regulations.
4. The company collects Its capital by the sale of its shares and those who buy the shares are called the
members. The amount so collected is called the share capital.

ADVANTAGES:

1. Financial Privacy:

Public limited companies are strictly regulated and are required by law to publish their annually. This
ensures that they reveal their true financial position to their owners and potential investors so that they can
determine the true worth of its shares.

2. Large Capital

Public limited companies enjoy an increased ability to raise capital since they can issue shares to the
public through the stock market. They can also raise additional capital by Issuing debentures and bonds
through the same market from the public. Debentures and bonds are unsecured debts Issued to a
company on the strength of its integrity and financial performance.

3. Transferable shares

Shares of a public limited company are bought and sold in a stock exchange market. They are freely
transferable between its members and people trading in the stock exchange.
DISADVANTAGE
1. High Costs

A Public Limited Company is normally a complex thing to start. The firm banker (or
“underwriter”) then offers the initial shares to the public (and keeps a substantial commission). Often, the
costs of setting up a public firm and Initial Public Offering (IPO) can run into hundreds of thousands of
dollars.
2. Greedy Shareholders

Those who buy shares have no particular interest in the firm except in that it makes a quick buck. Most
companies, however, have an interest in laying out a long-term growth plan that takes patience and
planning It is not often many shareholders see it this way.
3. Slow Decisions

If the company is public, it must have a board of directors representing the main and most powerful
stockholders. This means, in turn, that major decisions must go through the board, with debates and
voting. In reality, this entails those decisions will be slow and often painful. Sometimes, they might not be
made at all.

PRIVATE LIMITED COMPANY

Definition: A private limited company is the most common type of business entity incorporated
Malaysia. In Malaysia a private limited company by shareholding is known as 
Sendirian Berhad (Sdn Bhd) Company ,Unlike a sole proprietorship or partnership, a private limited
company is its own separate legal entity. It can acquire its own assets, go into debt, sue or be sued in its
own name.
Requirements
A minimum 1 member (shareholder) and 1 director (ordinarily reside in Malaysia by having a principal
place of residence in Malaysia) are required. A natural person can be both a director and shareholder,
while a corporate legal entity can only be shareholder.
Advantage
: No Minimum Capital
: Separate Legal Entity
: Limited Liability
: Free & Easy transfer of shares
: Lower Income Tax Rate
Disadvantage
:Restricts the transfer ability of shares by its articles.
: Number of shareholders in any case cannot exceed 50.
: Unable to the issue prospectus to public.
:In stock exchange shares cannot be quoted.

PRIVATE UNLIMITED LAW IN COMPANY

1. An unlimited company or private unlimited company is a hybrid company (corporation) incorporated
with or without a share capital (and similar to its limited company counterpart) but where the legal liability
of the members or shareholders is not limited: that is, its members or shareholders have a joint and
several non-limited obligation to meet any insufficiency in the assets of the company to enable settlement
of any outstanding financial liability in the event of the company's formal liquidation.

2. Private unlimited companies are similar to private limited companies but with a few key differences –
firstly, they generally do not have to file accounts at Companies House so they can keep their trading
information secret, and secondly the liability of the shareholders is unlimited, so if the company is insolvent
or goes into liquidation the shareholders are personally liable to repay creditors.

• The company name (this must be different from any other company already on record, and cannot
contain certain words or be offensive or misleading)

• A memorandum and articles of association (you will need to create these yourself as there are no
standard forms available)
• Details of the shareholders and directors including People with Significant Control. There must be at
least one director and shareholder, although this can be the same person.
