Such a company is easy to set up, registration of the business does not cost anything, and usually there is no need to keep full accounting. However, over time, when the company begins to grow, an injection of capital may be needed. In this situation <a href=\"https:\/\/pmrsa.pl\/en\/10-things-worth-knowing-about-consumer-bankruptcy\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"691\">it is worth considering setting up a company and knowing<\/a>, what risks lurk for the entrepreneur. What are these risks? We advise.<\/p>\n<p>According to Tax Care data (Entrepreneurship Index), almost 3 million sole proprietorships were registered in Poland by the end of 2018. This strong trend continues, as from January to February of this year the number of sole proprietorships increased <a href=\"https:\/\/pmrsa.pl\/en\/despite-the-crisis-companies-in-poland-do-not-give-up-on-investing-in-it\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"466\">In Poland, on average, there are over 900 companies<\/a> daily.<\/p>\n<p>Although running a JDG has many advantages, it is not without its disadvantages.

Z biegiem czasu jednak, kiedy firma zaczyna si\u0119 rozrasta\u0107, potrzebny bywa zastrzyk kapita\u0142u. W tej sytuacji warto rozwa\u017cy\u0107 za\u0142o\u017cenie sp\u00f3\u0142ki i wiedzie\u0107, jakie ryzyka czyhaj\u0105 na przedsi\u0119biorc\u0119. Jakie to ryzyka? Podpowiadamy. Wed\u0142ug danych Tax Care (Indeks Przedsi\u0119biorczo\u015bci), w Polsce do ko\u0144ca 2018 r. zarejestrowano niemal 3 mln jednoosobowych dzia\u0142alno\u015bci gospodarczych. Ten silny trend utrzymuje si\u0119, bo od stycznia do lutego bie\u017c\u0105cego roku przybywa\u0142o w Polsce \u015brednio ponad 900 firm dziennie. Chocia\u017c prowadzenie JDG posiada mn\u00f3stwo zalet, nie jest te\u017c pozbawione wad.

Po przekszta\u0142ceniu firmy jednak, to sp\u00f3\u0142ka odpowiada za swoje zobowi\u0105zania, a nie przedsi\u0119biorca ca\u0142ym swoim maj\u0105tkiem. Za\u0142o\u017cenie sp\u00f3\u0142ki pozwala te\u017c na pozyskanie dodatkowego kapita\u0142u do prowadzenia biznesu, co sprzyja rozwojowi firmy.
