Wisconsin Articles of Share or Interest Exchange are legal documents used to establish a corporation in the state of Wisconsin. These articles are typically filed with the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions and must include the name and address of the corporation, the type of business it will engage in, the number and type of shares or interests the corporation will issue, and the names of the initial directors. The Wisconsin Articles of Share or Interest Exchange also provide the rules and regulations governing the corporation and its operations. There are two main types of Wisconsin Articles of Share or Interest Exchange: Articles of Incorporation and Articles of Exchange. Articles of Incorporation establish the corporation's basic structure, including the name, purpose, and powers of the corporation. Articles of Exchange are used to issue shares or interests of the corporation to shareholders or members.
