This authority likely remains with specialized agencies like the Board of Investments (BOI) and the Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA), which have established frameworks and expertise in this area.

This emphasizes that the partnership is not merely an aggregation of the individual partners. It has an identity all its own. The assets of the partnership are owned by the partnership, not by the partners individually in specific shares (though their capital contributions represent their interest in the partnership's net assets). Similarly, the debts of the partnership are primarily the obligations of the partnership. SIMPLIFY

Exception (Article *): Article * provides an exception known as partnership by estoppel. This occurs when a person, by words spoken or written or by conduct, represents themselves, or consents to another representing them to anyone, as a partner in an existing partnership or with one or more persons not actual partners. In such cases, the person making the representation (or consenting to it) can be held liable as a partner to anyone who has, on the faith of such representation, given credit to the actual or apparent partnership. This exception protects third parties who rely on misleading representations of partnership. SIMPLIFY
