Answer:

C) reducing the financial risk for individual investors.

Step-by-step explanation:

Individual investors buy shares or stocks from a corporation. Each stock represents a portion of the ownership of the company. Corporations are usually leveraged by issuing new stocks instead of borrowing money from banks or issuing bonds, that way their financial risk will always be smaller.
