although written guidance on partnership often prescribes the introduction of formal agreements among parties, field experience shows that other being more loosely organise. Therefore in this document the generic term "paperwork" refer to both informal (letters, non binding memoranda of undersatnding,etc) as well as more formal documents (contracts, corporation article and bylaws) that describe how partners together, how they interact, what they do and how their partnership is expected to evolve over time. The degree of formality required in the documentation is a result of a range of factors including local and societal norms as well as general practice. Therefore, rather than promoting more or less formality, this document provides guidance on how any form of paperwork can best support partners in their efforts to achieve their objectives.
