JE_2627 (CDQ)	Incorporated Limited Partnerships (en)	I.L.P. (en)	An Incorporated Limited Partnership in Jersey is a limited partnership that is incorporated as a body corporate with its own legal personality.

General partners are liable without limit and limited partners only up to their commitment. It is used for funds and joint ventures where corporate status is convenient.
JE_3968 (CDQ)	Private Limited by Guarantee (en)	Ltd (en)	A Private Company Limited by Guarantee in Jersey has members who promise a fixed amount towards debts on a winding up rather than subscribing shares.
