Why Update Partner(s) in a Limited Partnership (LP)?

A Limited Partnership is legally defined by its registered General and Limited Partners. Any change in the identity or role of a partner alters the structure of the partnership and must be documented accordingly with CAC to reflect the current reality of the business.

  • Legal Compliance: All changes to an LP’s partnership composition, whether an addition, withdrawal, or status change; must be filed with CAC to remain compliant.

  • Changes in Partner Status: A General Partner may become a Limited Partner (or vice versa) based on role changes or liability restructuring. 

  • Admission or Withdrawal of Partners: New partners may join the LP to contribute capital or expertise, while others may exit due to retirement, death, or transfer of interest. Each of these events requires CAC notification.
