About Limited Companies

What is a Limited Company?

Limited companies registered in the UK are private companies whose liability is limited by law. It has its own assets, liabilities, profits and losses where all liabilities are limited to the Company. It differs from a sole trader or partnership where assets and liabilities of the business are that of the individuals.

It is this aspect of limited liability that makes registration of a limited company beneficial in trading as it protects the personal assets of the officers should the company experience financial difficulties.

You can register a simple sole member company or appoint multiple directors and shareholders.

A limited company registered in Great Britain (England, Scotland and Wales) is processed through Companies House. Our online service takes care of all the otherwise arduous paperwork and simplifies the task into one complete affordable ‘no hassle’ package.
