What areTypes of Commercial Companies?

The company must take  commercial legal forms set by the law, otherwise

are declared invalid and these models have Originated in practical life and

some of them had found a long time ago, then the project was legalized

It is no doubt that the number of these legal forms of companies may come

in response to the requirements of economic life.

Commercial companies are divided into two major and distinct types:

First: individual companies called also quotas firms.

Second: Companies of funds also called equity firms. There is a third type besides

the mentioned. It carries the characteristics of each of the types previously and

called as companies with different nature because it's based on a personal account

from side and on the financial account on the other side, and my side overshadow

the other and everything will be showed in the right time.Thus, individual companies

are three types:

First : Partnership and Limited Partnership and joint venture.

Second: Funds companies:

These companies, on the contrary of the former type Does not rely on personal

accounts, which  does not have any role in these companies, but mainly based

on raising the necessary capital to exploit the company's activity.Thus,

the financial account occupies first place in these companies.

The obvious model for these companies is Shareholding Company, mostly

Fund companies have huge projects, that need large amounts of capital and

a limited number of partners are unable to afford As in the case of individual

companies. These companies depend primarily on public subscribers.

The company's capital is divided Into shares of equal value and are usually

low value shares so that a large number of low-income persons can subscribe

Shareholders' liability is limited, only they interested in the value of

subscribed shares.

Third: companies with dual nature:

In addition to the two former types there is a third type of companies

based on personal account and the financial account together, It is

companies of double nature mediates between individual companies and

fund companies .Individual account may exceed in these companies, which

are closely resemble to individual companies or the financial account

exceeds and in this case  resemble to  companies funds.

These companies including two types:

I-                    LLCs. (Limited liability companies)

II-                  Second: companies limited by shares

 We will talk about each type separately:

A-Limited liability companies

These companies are a relatively recent and entered the Egyptian

legislation for the first time by Law No. 26 of 1954, which Canceled by

Law 159 of 1981 and limited liability company is similar to individual

company  in terms of number of partners, which should not be more

than fifty partners, who their shares are not for trading . 

Their circulation  is subject to certain restrictions, the most important of which

is the possibility to retrieve these shares to partners, And it may not

be established through public subscription. Finally it is not allowed to

issue shares or bonds for trading. This company is close to

fund companies in terms of the management system and its

founding, and identifying the responsibility of the partners, who

their shares can inherit.

B - companies limited by shares:

These companies consist of two types of partners:

Sleeping Partners, who are not liable , except  for their own shares they provide.

These shares take the form of tradable shares, which do not differ from shares

in joint stock companies, And co-partners are similar to the general partners

in partnership companies and Limited companies. Hence they acquire trader status,

whose liabilities are absolute in all their money, and They manage the company.

 Finally  there are  six types of commercial companies

1-    Partnership.

2 - Limited Partnership.

3 - JSC. ( Joint stock companies)

4 - a company limited by shares.

5 –(LLC) the limited liability company.

These are the types of commercial companies in the Egyptian legislation .

Thus there are  these six types. The formation of the company relating

to public order, and it does not allow for individuals to make new types of companies

only these six types and anything is considered null and void.
