The Slovakian poloènos s Ruèením Odmedzeným (S.R.O) is the most common form of incorporation in Slovakia and it is equivalent to a Limited Liability Company in the UK or a GmbH in Austria and Germany in that it is a legal entity which is separate and distinct from the individuals who run it. For sole traders and for people in partnerships, the individuals’ personal assets are at risk if there is a claim against the organisation but shareholders in an S.R.O are liable to lose only the value of the share capital to which they subscribe.

The Slovak Republic has created a regulatory environment where priority is given to small and medium sized companies with the purpose of growing and developing a healthy economy.
