A limited partnership (LP) is a type of partnership with general partners who have a right to manage the business and limited partners who have no right to manage the business but have only limited liability for its debts. [1] Limited partnerships are distinct from limited liability partnerships, in which all partners have limited liability.
The SLP is composed of at least one general partner ("GP") and one or several limited partner(s). The partner may be a GP and an LP at the same time. While the GP is jointly and separately liable for any commitments of the company on their private assets and property, the liability of the LP is limited to the extent of their contributed participation interest.
