Which terms are not allowed in a trade name in Louisiana?

  1. Trade or asset management

  2. "Inc", "Corp", "Limited", or "LLC"

  3. Business and financial services

  4. Associates and partnerships

The correct answer is: "Inc", "Corp", "Limited", or "LLC"

In Louisiana, specific terms are restricted from being used in trade names to prevent misconceptions about the nature of a business's legal structure. The terms "Inc", "Corp", "Limited", or "LLC" are designated specifically for businesses that have registered as corporations or limited liability companies. Utilizing these terms in a trade name could mislead the public into believing that a business is incorporated or enjoys limited liability when it is not, thus violating regulations designed to ensure transparency in business operations. The other options involve words that describe types of services or professional associations without implying a specific legal structure or misleading the public regarding the business's formation and liability protection. Therefore, they do not carry the same legal implications when used in trade names.
