Answer 1

European group of economic interest (EGEI)

The EGEI (a contract based in EU law) was created to increase cooperation between companies and service providers in EU member states. It is similar to the French regime of the groupement européen d'intérêt économique, which was also an influence on Portuguese legislators when defining CGCs, one of the main reasons the legal regime applicable to EGEI is that of CGCs.

The law governing EGEIs is EC Regulation 2137/85 of July 25, the Decree-law 148/90, of May 9, and the Portuguese Companies Code (Código das Sociedades Comerciais) regarding general partnerships.

EGEI members have unlimited personal, several and joint liability, and any EGEI member that leaves the group will remain liable for the debts resulting from the group's activity before the date it ceased to be a member. Nevertheless, the Regulation foresees the possibility of an agreement entered into by the EGEI and a third party, according to which one or more EGEI members are liable for certain debts.

I believe this is what your looking for, European group of economic interest.
