Answer:

The answer is corporation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Also known as "legal person", a corporation is a separate entity from its owners, and as such it has the same rights and obligations as an individual: enter contracts, pay taxes or recruiting employees.

A corporation involves limited liability, meaning the members are are not responsible for the company's faults or obligations.
