Scope notes
Corporate body is a kind of Group (RiC-E09). By exception, within some legal contexts, a sole trader or sole proprietor may be recognized as a corporate body, even when the economic enterprise does not have additional members. Corporate bodies often have a mandate giving them the authority to act within their area(s) of competence. They will also usually act within a particular jurisdiction being governed by legal and other rule-based frameworks. A corporate body though may be constituted in a more informal manner and exist as an entity by virtue of its recognition as such by its members.
