How the Stock Market Works

Stocks & Shares• Scan the article on page 91 to answer the

questions in 1BANSWERS:1. Because a non-incorporated business (i.e. one that

is not a company) has unlimited liability for debts. If it owes money, the people involved in it are not protected from bankruptcy and can lose their personal possessions. A company provides legal protection and limited liability.

2. In order to raise capital, generally to expand the business.

3. Shares give their holders part of the ownership of a company. Shareholders receive a proportion of a company’s profits as a dividend, and may be able to make a capital gain by selling their shares at a higher price than they paid for them.
