Foreign investors have several options depending on their business goals:
LLC (Limited Liability Company): The most flexible and popular option; no minimum capital required (except for licensed activities); shareholders are liable only within their contributions.
JSC (Joint Stock Company): Used for regulated industries (banks, insurance); allows share issuance; requires more governance.
