Private company=the company does not raise money by selling shares of stock (portions of the company) on the open market.

Small and Large = Don't know what you are looking for here, but if a company is a fortune 500 it is a large company, a small company might be anything from a carpenter to a small chain of grocery stores.

Directors=people who oversee the running of a corporation. If it is a public company (they sell stock) the directors are in charge of making sure the company is efficient so the shareholders can make money.

Shareholders=people who own a portion (shares of stock) in a company. Every share gets a vote when the directors call a vote. If you own 1 share your voice in the company, your stake, is way less than someone who owns a million shares. When the company makes money, it the price of the stock goes up and the stockholders earn money based on their share (if the company pays dividends) or by selling their shares when the price of the stock goes up.

A private company is a company whose ownership is private.

Private companies may issue stock and have shareholders. However, their shares do not trade on public exchanges like the NYSE and the shares are not issued through an initial public offering (IPO). In general, the shares of these businesses are less liquid and the values are difficult to determine.

Most small businesses are privately held. In the US, only a few large businesses are privately held, and they are all law firms.

The company must have at least one director and a secretary who cannot also be the sole director. There will therefore always be two officers of the company.



I hope this is enough to help you...

A private company is one that does not issue public stock. A public company offers stock (basically shares of ownership in the company) and those who purchase these are the shareholders. Directors are the administrators of a public company who essentially run it to generate profit which, in part, are distributed back to the shareholder in the form of a certain amount earned per share of stock.
