what is holding company?

Answer Posted / shilan

A holding company is a company that owns other companies'
outstanding stock. It usually refers to a company which
does not produce goods or services itself, rather its only
purpose is owning shares of other companies. Holding
companies allow the reduction of risk for the owners and
can allow the ownership and control of a number of
different companies.
