Affiliate Global Parent |
This is designed to represent non-ownership relationships for a limited number of family trees. An example of this would be a Allstate Insurance single site, single owner franchisee. From a legal perspective this is simply a small business, Allstate Insurance corporate has no equity in the business nor legal responsibility for the debts of this firm. This is the traditional “risk” view of the business that is appropriate when it comes to extending credit. However, there is a business relationship in place between the franchise store and the franchisor – Allstate Insurance . In some cases it is helpful for marketing purposes to “link” all of the Allstate Insurance locations together as a brand family. |
