Maximum loss limited to their capital investment

Explanation:

As an investor there is a possibility of both profit and loss. If it is sole proprietorship, the profit or loss will be put on the his / her shoulder. In case of limited partner, the advantage is that if there is a loss occurred it will" limit to their capital investment". He/she enjoys "protected investments" There will not be any huge loss since the capital invested is limited. "A company can have more than one limited partner"
