Perspective | Can a "spouse-owned company" be considered a single-member limited company?
Article 23, Paragraph 3 of the "Company Law of the People's Republic of China" stipulates: "For a company with only one shareholder, if the shareholder cannot prove that the company's assets are separate from the shareholder's own personal assets, the shareholder shall bear joint and several liability for the company's debts." In practice, to avoid shareholders of single-shareholder companies being held jointly liable for the company's debts, it has become increasingly common for couples—acting as shareholders—to establish companies where they hold 100% of the shares. Given that the shareholders in such cases are married to each other, can these companies be regarded as single-shareholder limited liability companies?

As a typical example of current mass-involved economic crimes, the crime of illegally absorbing public deposits directly determines the severity of sentencing—and even delineates the boundary between criminal liability and non-criminal behavior—making it a "battleground" in criminal defense. However, in judicial practice, controversies and disagreements persist regarding the determination of the amount involved in such illegal absorption cases, particularly concerning issues like the criteria for assessment, the accumulation of amounts, and applicable deductions. Given that public security authorities typically commission auditing firms to evaluate the exact amounts of illegal absorption, losses, commissions, and other financial details after reviewing case materials such as backend data, fund transaction records, statements from investors, investment contracts, and transfer receipts submitted by complainants. Yet, the audits conducted by these firms often involve little more than extracting, listing, organizing, and performing basic calculations on the available data. To clarify the ongoing disputes over how the amount involved in illegal absorption crimes should be calculated—and thereby ensure an objective and accurate determination of the criminal sum—the author, drawing from personal experience defending clients in such cases, has systematically summarized and outlined the relevant calculation rules as follows.
