Ancillary Corporation Law and Legal Definition
An ancillary corporation is a wholly-owned subsidiary whose productive activities are ancillary in nature: that is, confined to providing services to the parent corporation and/or other ancillary enterprises owned by the same parent corporation. The kinds of services which may be produced by an ancillary unit are transportation, purchasing, sales and marketing, various kinds of financial or business services, computing and communications, security, maintenance, and cleaning. In some cases, the ancillary unit is located in a different economy from the companies it serves. An ancillary corporation is recognized as a separate institutional unit when it is resident in a different economy from that of any of its owners, even if it is not, in practice, autonomous.
