A Company Limited by Guarantee is a type of company that does not have a share capital or shareholders and is usually formed to manage a charity or not for profit organisation such as a sports club or political party.

Rather than having shareholders a limited by Guarantee Company will have guarantors (or trustees), such individuals enjoy limited liability status but guarantee to pay a predetermined sum (usually £1) in the event of winding up the company.

What is the difference between a Guarantee company and a Company limited by shares?

Such companies also have a list of predetermined objects stipulated in their Articles of Association, the objects define what the company will do and usually include a clause to restrict the directors from paying out any profits to the trustees, but rather to reinvest any profits in fulfilling the company's objects.
