  1. Limited liability is a legal safeguard that 
  2. allows shareholders to be liable for their 
  3. company's debts only up to and including the 
  4. value of their shareholding. Eg: if a limited 
  5. liability company goes bankrupt with debts of 
  6. £1 million, the shareholders are not liable 
  7. for any of that debt, although the value of 
  8. their shares in the company would be 
  9. worthless.
