LLC FAQs
An LLC is owned by its members. They are analogous to partners in a partnership or shareholders in a corporation, depending on how the LLC is managed. A member will more closely resemble shareholders if the LLC utilizes managers, because then the members will not participate in management. If the LLC does not utilize managers, then the members will closely resemble partners because they will have a direct say in company decision-making. A member’s ownership of an LLC is represented by membership interest, just as partners have interest in a partnership and shareholders have stock in a corporation.
