  1. close corporation

    A close corporation, also known as a closely held corporation, is a company that has a limited number of shareholders, typically less than 35, and is not traded on public exchanges. It is often owned and operated by a small group of businesspeople or families. These corporations typically have restrictions on the transfer of shares to prevent them from becoming publicly traded, and the shareholders often serve as the company's principal operators. In some jurisdictions, close corporations have more relaxed corporate governance rules, allowing shareholders more control over business operations compared to traditional corporations.
