Limited liability partnerships

What is a limited liability partnership (LLP)?

A limited liability partnership (LLP) is similar to a standard partnership, except that the individual members are offered reduced personal responsibility for any potential business debts. As a result, LLPs are only recommended for profit-running businesses.

LLPs are also slightly more complicated to set up and run than ordinary partnerships, as they have to meet many of the same requirements as limited companies.
