The company keeps on existing in the eyes of law even in the case of death, insolvency, the bankruptcy of any of its members. This leads to perpetual succession of the company.

Widening the shareholder base and spreading risk and raising capital

Permitted to sell share in public, it can get investor much larger than any other business form. This will facilitate early investors of the company to sell some of their own share at profit while still retaining a substantial stake in the company. It is also a good way of distributing the risk while bringing in capital as well as expertise.

Growth and expansion opportunities with other financing opportunities..

Just not having ability to raise fund through shares, such companies also hold better market standing to get corporate loans at a favorable rate of interest and repayment terms. Debt financing is cheaper than equity funding. With deep pocket, many avenues may come by way of new product, market or acquisition. Such can help grow exponentially

Transferability of shares and Exit strategy.

The fact that shareholders are less bound, increases the risk appetite of investors to bring in capital. Also the initial founders exit options are better with higher transferability of share, incraese visibility of business and its performance helps increase investors confidence
