A private corporation, also known as a privately held corporation or a close corporation, is a legal entity owned by private individuals or a small group of investors. Unlike a public corporation, its shares are not publicly traded on a stock exchange and are generally held by a limited number of shareholders. Private corporations often have fewer regulatory requirements and offer more control over decision-making to the owners.
