FAQ
Q: Contractual JV or incorporated JV — which do I need?
A contractual JV is an agreement between the parties without creating a separate company. An incorporated JV involves setting up a new company owned by the JV partners. Contractual JVs are simpler and more flexible; incorporated JVs provide limited liability and a clearer separation of the venture's assets and liabilities.
