Why can’t an entity be formed for the sole purpose of buying securities?
Hi, I am looking to invest in a real estate fund syndication and I have received advice to invest through an LLC for a specific tax purpose.
However upon research, I am finding that an organization cannot be formed with the sole purpose of purchasing specific securities. And my question is why is this not allowed?
