Yes, but the advantage of the joint stock company is precisely that it separates concentration of capital from concentration of wealth.

Dunno about advantage, but it's certainly a quality.

The key disadvantages of joint stock companies are:

(a) Concentration of Capital = concentration of control

(b) Principal/ Agency problem.
