Partnership, Joint Venture的分別?

Joint Ventures versus Partnerships

The main difference between a joint venture and a partnership is that the members of a joint venture have teamed together for a particular purpose or project, while the members of a partnership have joined together to run "a business in common".

Each member of the joint venture retains ownership of his or her property.

And each member of the joint venture shares only the expenses of the particular project or venture.

In a JV, a separate entity is formed that ceases to exist on completion of the task agreed whereas, a partnership firm continues operations until dissolved and formation of a separate entity is not necessary.
