Legal Liability – Do Business Owners Need to Bear Personal Responsibility?

Business owners must consider whether their personal assets are legally separate from the company’s liabilities. This is particularly important for businesses in high-risk industries, those prone to lawsuits, or those dealing with third-party claims. 

Legal Responsibilities by Business Structure:

Sole Proprietorship & Partnership

• Owners are personally liable for all business debts and legal issues.
• In Partnerships, partners may also be jointly liable for the actions of other partners.

Private Limited Company (Sdn. Bhd.) & Limited Liability Partnership (LLP/Plt.)

• Liability is limited to the amount of invested capital or subscribed shares.
• Personal assets are protected, even if the company faces financial trouble.

Protect Your Assets!
If your business involves high financial risk, opting for an Sdn. Bhd. or LLP can provide better financial protection and limit personal liability.

 法律责任 – 业者是否需要个人承担？

生意业者也需要考虑是否与公司的法律债务责任分隔。尤其是当生意涉及高风险行业，面临潜在法律诉讼或是第三方索赔的业务时。

个人企业及合伙企业的生意模式都将由个人承担所有公司所面临的法律责任。尤其是在合伙企业中，合伙人可能需要对其他生意合伙人的行为承担连带责任。

因此，生意业者可选择私人有限公司(Sdn. Bhd.) 或是有限合伙企业 (Plt.) 将其金融负债限制在其已认购的股份或是出资的资本数额。
