The shareholders are not personally liable for debts and obligations of the corporation. They can personally lose only to the extent of their investments in the Alaska corporation form purchasing stock. Since the Alaska corporation is an independent legal entity, the Alaska corporation has continuous existence. It does not cease to exist simply because one of the shareholders dies or retires. In addition, corporations are the most well known and widely recognized type of business entity. Corporations often have an easier time setting up insurance, retirement funds, profit-sharing, pension, and stock option plans than other business entities.

Ownership in a Alaska corporation is more easily transferable than other business entities.
