Private Company Limited by Guarantee |
|
A company limited by guarantee is an alternative type of incorporation used primarily for non-profit organizations that require corporate status. A guarantee company does not have a share capital, but has members who become guarantors instead of shareholders. The guarantors give an undertaking defined in the Articles to contribute a nominal amount towards the winding up of the company in the event of a shortfall upon cessation of business.
A guarantee company cannot distribute its profits to its members, and is therefore eligible to apply for charitable status if necessary.
Common uses of guarantee companies include clubs, membership organizations, sports associations and charities.
Key Points
Ordering a Guarantee Company
Charge for incorporating a company limited by guarantee is slightly higher than that for a standard company limited by shares due to the additional work required in ensuring the company’s articles of Association are correctly drafted. Orders can be placed online on our usual order pages as with any other company.
