thin corporation

A corporation with large debts to its shareholders and very little equity.In such a situation,the IRS may reclassify the debt as equity investment,meaning payments to shareholders do not include tax-deductible interest but are, instead, dividend payments. Thinly capitalized corporations are used for a variety of sophisticated tax planning vehicles.
