What is a partnership

A partnership is a formal arrangement by two or more parties to manage and operate a business and share its profits.

There are several types of partnership arrangements. In common partnerships, all partners share liabilities and profits equally. In limited partnerships, partners may have limited liability. There also is arrangement that involves “silent partner,” in which one party is not involved in the day-to-day operations of the business.
