This slide presentation defines and describes five types of partners in a partnership business: 1) Active partners who take an active role in management and have unlimited liability. 2) Sleeping partners who do not participate actively but contribute capital and share profits with unlimited liability. 3) Partners in profit only who share profits but not losses and have unlimited liability. 4) Nominal partners who allow their name to be used as a partner but do not contribute capital or participate in management and have liability to outsiders for firm debts. 5) Limited partners who share profits but not losses, contribute capital but do not participate in management, and have liability limited to their capital investment.
