Company Formation
Aganna provides fast-track incorporation services in the USA, Mexico, Latin America, and Europe. Our team handles all aspects of company formation, ensuring a smooth and efficient process.
What is Company Formation?
Company formation is the legal process of incorporating a business entity. This process creates a separate legal entity distinct from its owners, providing limited liability protection and establishing the foundation for your business operations.
Legal Entity Creation
Company formation establishes a separate legal entity that can enter into contracts, own assets, incur liabilities, and engage in business activities independently from its owners. This separation is fundamental to modern business operations.
Limited Liability Protection
One of the primary benefits of company formation is limited liability protection, which shields the personal assets of shareholders from business debts and liabilities. This protection is crucial for risk management and business continuity.
