Limited company has a very important business concept. Limited means the liability for shareholders is limited.
Liability is limit to the share value at par of the shareholder hold. For example, Peter hold
5,000 ordinary shares @ HK$1.00 each in ABC Company Limited, in the case of liquidation of ABC
Co Ltd, Peter just liable to HK$5,000 to the company. No more than that but only this HK$5,000. |
