Academic literature on the topic 'Company, entrepreneur, sole proprietorship, partnership'

Perusahaan dapat dibedakan atas perusahaan badan hukum dan perusahaan bukan badan hukum. Di Indonesia, Perusahaan badan hukum dapat berbentuk Perseroan Terbatas (PT), Yayasan dan Koperasi. Sedangkan perusahaan bukan badan hukum dapat berupa Firma (Fa) dan Persekutuan Komanditer atau Comanditaire Vennootschap (CV). Peraturan mengenai bentuk perusahaan persekutuan, firma dan CV terdapat di dalam KUHPer dan KUHD. Sama halnya seperti di Indonesia, bentuk hukum suatu perusahaan Malaysia dapat dikenal dengan beberapa bentuk business entitiy, seperti Sole Proprietorship, Partnership, Limited Liability Partnership (LLP), Private Limited Company/SendirianBerhad (Sdn Bhd), dan Public Limited Company/Berhad (Bhd). Beberapa Business Entity yang ada di Malaysia memiliki kemiripan dengan jenis badan usaha yang ada di Indonesia, seperti Partnership atau Perusahaan Persekutuan. Terdapat pula perbedaan antara bentuk dan peraturan yang mengatur perusahaan persekutuan Indonesia dengan perusahaan persekutuan Malaysia. Undang-Undang yang digunakan pun berbeda bagi kedua negara, Partnership diatur dalam Partnership Act 1961 sedangkan untuk Limited Liability Partnership diatur dalam Limited Liability Act 2012. Penelitian hukum ini menggunakan metode penelitian normatif dengan pendekatan komparatif. Data yang digunakan adalah data sekunder yang didapat dari bahan hukum primer, sekunder dan tersier. Pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui studi kepustakaan dan dokumen serta diolah dengan melakukan seleksi data secara sistematis untuk mendapatkan gambaran umum dari hasil penelitian. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dalam Partnership mengatur mengenai perusahaan secara tradisional dengan ingin mendapatkan laba atau keuntungan. Sedangkan di dalam LLP menggabungkan antara partnership dan company. Perbedaan bentuk hukum perusahaan persekutuan antara Indonesia dan Malaysia ini juga jelas terlihat jika dilihat dari aturan pada masing-masing negara dimana Indonesia tidak mempunyai undang-undang khusus mengenai bentuk hukum persekutuan ini. Dengan demikian, pemerintah hendaknya membuat sebuah undang-undang yang mengatur mengenai bentuk usaha persekutuan lebih khusus dalam peraturan yang berbeda agar dapat mudah dipahami oleh pelaku usaha seperti peraturan yang berlaku di negara Malaysia.

The emergence of limited liabilityover the course of the nineteenth century was marked by intense and sustained feelings of anxiety. Victorians debated it in Parliament and in the periodical press, anatomized its evils in fiction and drama, and theorized its merits and pitfalls in the nascent discipline of economics. Formalized at mid-century through a series of acts that collectively instituted what Paul Johnson describes as “companification” – “the substitution of an impersonal corporate legal entity for the sole proprietorship or partnership” – limited liability was the means by which a corporation was constituted as a legal individual in order to restrict the responsibility of a company's owners for its debts (106). Early response to the practice was tentative: though hailed by some as a means of promoting economic growth, limited liability also inspired fear among the public, for whom it seemed a threat both to moral character and to responsible social behaviour. Wary that it would promote dishonesty in business and legitimize irresponsible speculation among investors, the mid-Victorians did not initially rush to invest. Despite the fact that by the final decades of the century many early fears had been realized and anxieties about investment continued unabated, however, there was a marked shift towards a culture of investment (Taylor 212–13). Summarizing the effects of the “‘Limited-Company’ Craze” in theNineteenth Centuryin 1898, one commentator observed that “Personal ownership has ceased to be the controlling power in trade; and when it left it took along with it that personal care, personal supervision, and personal responsibility which made our business great.” The result, he suggested, is that “we now have, in thousands of instances, mere ‘corporations without bodies to be kicked or souls to be damned’” (Van Oss 734).

A cette époque de crises économiques internationales, de mondialisation et d’ouverture des marchés, la micro-entreprise apparaît plus que jamais comme une arme d'anti-crise et de création d'emplois. Dans ce contexte, les outils juridiques s'avèrent être le meilleur moyen pour accomplir ces objectifs. Ces outils sont principalement composés du droit des sociétés et des entreprises, du droit de la sécurité sociale et du droit fiscal. Cependant, ils ne sont pas les mêmes en France qu'au Liban. En effet, les législations de ces deux pays ont pendant longtemps porté des conceptions juridiques similaires. Or, depuis une vingtaine d'années le droit français a commencé à prendre un rythme d’évolution accéléré suite à l’influence exercé par le droit continental européen dans le cadre de l’harmonisation européenne. Ainsi, il s’agit d’intégrer les évolutions du droit français dans le droit libanais. Toutefois, le droit français connaît lui même plusieurs imperfections. C’est pourquoi un regard porté sur les législations appartenant à un autre système juridique que celui du « Droit civil », notamment sur celles appartenant à la famille de la « Common Law », pourrait apporter des solutions originales aux limites des droits français et libanais. Par conséquent, cette contribution vise à trouver des remèdes aux lacunes juridiques existantes en matière de micro-entreprise en France et au Liban et à élaborer de nouveaux moyens de la promouvoir<br>At this time of international economic crises, globalization and open markets, the micro-enterprise appears more than ever as a weapon of anti-crisis and job creation. In this context, the legal tools are proving to be the best way to achieve these goals. These tools are mainly composed of company and corporate laws, social security law and tax law. However, they vary from France to Lebanon. Even though, for a long time, the legislations of both countries have carried similar legal concepts. Yet, for more than twenty years now French law has begun taking an accelerated pace of evolution, due to the influence of the European continental law in the context of European harmonization. Thus, the objective is to incorporate the French law evolutions in the Lebanese law. However, the French law suffers of several imperfections, this is why a glance at the legislations of other legal systems than the “Civil law”, in particular those of “Common law”, could provide original solutions to the limits of French and Lebanese law. Therefore, this paper aims to find cures for existing legal loopholes concerning the micro-enterprise in France and Lebanon and to develop new ways to promote it

This chapter discusses the four principal business structures in the UK: sole proprietorship, ordinary partnership, limited liability partnership (LLP), and company. The LLP and the company are created via a process called incorporation and are therefore known as incorporated business structures or, as they are referred to in their respective statutes, as ‘bodies corporate’. The sole proprietorship and the ordinary partnership are not created via incorporation and so are known as unincorporated business structures.

This introductory chapter provides an overview of the aims of company law and governance. Company law should hold companies and directors to account; be flexible enough to respond to novel and evolving practices; provide certainty; promote transparency; help to avoid misalignment of interests; promote corporate efficiency; and help avoid corporate disaster. The chapter then looks at other key important business structures. Other than companies, the principal business structures are the sole proprietorship, the partnership, and the limited liability partnership. A sole proprietorship is a sole individual carrying on some form of business activity. Meanwhile, two or more persons who wish to engage in business together can form an ordinary partnership. Lastly, limited liability partnerships were created to provide suitable business structures for large, professional firms. In many respects, limited liability partnerships resemble companies.

This chapter discusses various general-purpose legal forms for carrying on business. It starts with the simplest form of all, sole proprietorship (or self-employment). Two or more persons carrying on a business or profession in common with a view of profit are in partnership, which has developed into the sophisticated form of the limited liability partnership. The rest of the chapter is devoted to the various lesser used forms of company which can be registered under the Companies Act 2006 (CA 2006). These are guarantee companies, unlimited companies and community interest companies. The chapter also discusses how re-registration can be used to transform various types of company into other types.
