Question

Briefly explain the following term: Artificial person

Answer in Brief

Solution

By the term artificial person, we mean that a company is created as a separate legal entity under the law and is a juristic person. However, unlike human beings, a company, as an artificial person, cannot breathe or talk, cannot sign its documents and cannot negotiate with its customers. In contrast, like human beings, a company does have its own life that is truly independent of the life of its members. Hence, because of these dissimilarities and similarities, a company is regarded as an artificial person.
