摘要
The antecedents of corporate limited liability are commonly seen to emerge amongst medieval Italian merchant bankers in so-called commendas, commercial arrangements combining investors and entrepreneurs. Italian merchants trading with the Levant may have adapted the Islamic concept of a risk-sharing partnership, the qirad, as a model. Western corporations thus may owe their origins to the influence of Islam's entrepreneurial founder, Mohammed.
