Can a corporation purchase shares of a newly formed corporation or does it have to be an individual. In other words, a corporation wishes to set up another corporation with two other individuals. Is this possible?

Re: Corporate Shareholder

As my colleagues stated correctly, the short (and general) answer to your question is: Yes.

Please note, however, that there are circumstances in which a corporation is NOT allowed to own stock in another corporation.

You should consult with a business attorney and/or your tax advisor/accountant for more details.
