Limited partner
All > Business > Finance > Personal Finance
A limited partner is a member of a partnership whose only financial risk is the amount he or she has invested.
In contrast, all of the assets of the general partner or partners, including those held outside the partnership, could be vulnerable to claims brought by the partnership's creditors.
