En esta pregunta que les hice en este threat, me confundí. En realidad son dos sociedades: SOCIEDAD ANONIMA por un lado y SOCIEDAD MUTUA por otro.
Podria ser MUTUAL LIMITED COMPANY por SOCIEDAD MUTUAL y
por SOCIEDAD ANONIMA?
Me pueden ayudar?

Muchas gracias. DIEGO

Hola Diego. Sociedad Anónima se puede traducir como stock company o corporation en el casso de empresas grandes. Este tipo de compañías no so limitadas a diferencia de las Sociedades de Responsabilidad Limitada (Limited Liability Company) o el caso de Comanditas (Limited Partnerships). No estoy segura de la traducción de Sociedad Mutual, pero investigaré.

Hope it helps

Hola aamigos !! Propongo un "brain-storm session", para la traducción de ciertos tipos de compañías; tengo algunas propuestas aquí, agardecería sus comentarios y sugerencias, o cualquier aporte a esta lista
Saludos !


Sociedad en nombre colectivo : General Partnership
Sociedad de Personas_ Partnership
Comandita Simple _ Limited Partnership
Comandita en Acciones_ Partnership Limited by Shares
Sociedad de Responsabilidad Limitada _ Limited Liability Company
Sociedad Anónima _ Stock company
Socciedad irregular: - De facto Association

I think for “sociedad mutua” you should drop the “limited”
the “limited” means a limitation of the responsibility.

Sociedad anómina
means no person is liable for the company.
therefore this responsibility is limited.
in USA : public corporation
in UK : public limited company
in UK also : limited (liability) company.

You are not a "wise guy" Frank you are a man of wisdom
As regards the notion of the word "limited", based on your comment there seems to be a significant difference between the UK legislation and the Venezuelan legislation. In Venezuela the liability of "sociedades anónimas" is unlimited, as opposed to Sociedad de Responsabilidad Limitada; who in the event of contingency will only be liable for up to a limited amount established in the Venezuelan Code of Commerce. In both cases the Company is responsible under a (unlimited or limited) liability. Conversely, Limited Partnerships (comanditas) bear no liability because they do not have juridical personality (status), therefore their responsibilities lie in the head of their partners.

Best regards
