Overview: Selecting the right business opportunity to match your needs and abilities is a vital decision for an aspiring entrepreneur. Just as important, from a legal and financial perspective, is the type of entity you choose for your new business venture. Also, choosing an entity at the outset is important, but choice of entity considerations also can come into play if your business grows, merges with another company, creates a subsidiary or restructures a new venture as a separate organization. Some entity forms are better than others if a business needs to raise capital from outside sources. Also, the likelihood that the business will lose money can play a significant role in your decision. Choosing a form of entity for your business depends on many variables. The standard forms of entity are evaluated and compared in the article. They include the sole proprietorship, the regular or C corporation and the "pass-through" entities--partnerships, Limited Liability Companies and S corporations.
