Tony could lose his entire company and build it from scratch in a week. He is the lead mind in robotics on earth. I don't think Bruce could put him out of business. All Tony needs is a basement and tools to make billions.
Since no one at Wayne Enterprises can't figure out that Batman is Bruce Wayne, I'll give it to Stark Industries. Bruce has idiots working for him. It's the only plausible explanation why no one in his company can figure out that Batman has always used Wayne tech devices and vehicles, or that he appeared soon after Bruce Wayne came back to Gotham - on and nobody could figure out where Bruce Wayne went. The movies were more realistic, in that he Bruce Wayne needed the inside help of a corporate office to hide the transactions that purchased the Batman's equipment, but even an accountant eventually figured it out because the money has to come FROM somewhere.
Batman, to hide his activities, has to break the law - ironic right. Tony doesn't because it is public knowledge that he is Iron-Man. Stark wins as he reveals to the world that Bruce Wayne has been embezzling money from his own company's money and appropriating corporate resources to fund years of a pet vigilante project. There are TONS of SEC violations there. Stark buys out Wayne after the stock PLUMMETS.

Except that fact that it's public knowledge that Bruce Wayne funds Batman.
Bruce Wayne reveals to the world that Tony Stark got rich of of Civil War, then blackmails Tony to the point where he goes back to drinking.

Tony's life and company are destroyed again.
In the end, this was the only outcome:
I'm not ignorant of Batman Incorporated. That wouldn't erase the years of embezzlement that preceded it. Bruce Wayne just told another lie to cover up his previous lies. He has not been funding Batman in secret, Wayne Enterprises has been funding his fight in secret. That announcement should have set off a wave of investor lawsuits, demanding proof that Wayne's funding of Batman's tech was purely personal funds - and not company funds. The SEC would step in and investigate as well for said same reasons. Bruce Wayne would go to jail and lose the company. Stark has always been, from day one, public that his company created Iron-Man.

You don't seem to understand the internal logic of the comicbook universe. If Bruce Wayne wasn't put in jail after he announced to everyone that he funded Batman, he won't be as a result of whatever Tony Stark does.
All the records of Bruce's transactions to Batman are public record. Hush literally TOLD the police that Bruce Wayne was Batman, but no one believed him, for that very reason.
And anyway, everyone loves Batman. You know what people wouldn't love? If they found out Tony Stark used the Civil War to make money, imprisoned heroes without a trial in a transdimensional concentration camp, forced guys like the Thing or Luke Cage (who wanted to remain neutral) into fighting against him, had an army of super villains under his control and all other sorts of misdeeds, such as making a clone of Thor which murdered Goliath?
If that really worse then Bruce funding a group of heroes to defend various cities around the globe? Imagine all the stuff Bruce (a genius in the fields on sociology and psychology) and his PR team could do with all the crap Stark has done.
I see Bruce wayne as being far richer than Tony Stark. Bruce is also a much more strategic thinker, whilst Tony's expertise is mainly in robotics and engineering. Bamtan is a tactician, I'm sure he could put Tony out of business.
Stark is richer then Bruce but has smarter employees working for him. Wayne has a bunch of retards working for him and even when people straight out say Wayne is Batman nobody believes them. Damn Gotham is retarded. Anyways Tony with ease.

Not likely. Tony, being the weak willed scrub he is, folds at the slightest bit of mud Bruce throws his way and goes back to drinking.
Stark later drunkenly flies his Iron Man armor into a loaded school bus and spends the rest of his days in a federal prison. Meanwhile Bruce buys out his company and uses his tech to further improve Batman Incorporated to the point where crime no longer exists. He goes on to erase world hunger, eradicate disease and makes Earth a universal superpower among the stars before his son hits puberty.
@comicstooge: I understand the logic of the real world. I have a business degree, and therefore understand the ramifications of Bruce Wayne's announcement that he has been funding Batman's activities in secret. The fact that Batman uses military and paramilitary style equipment also poses serious legal problems for Bruce Wayne to be associating himself as a private citizen with Batman. Tony Stark, however, is a licensed defense contractor, which means that his company has certain levels of clearance,which also means that his company has certain legal sanctions under the law to justifiably traffic and purchase and manufacture military grade weaponry. as a private citizen, Bruce would have to show the financial purchasing chain to validate that he was only using personal funds and not corporate funds to finance Batman's secret activities. And then he would have to answer for possessing several unlicensed vehicles, some with military equipment. Comic book logic, unfortunately, doesn't do well in the thread debating which company would bankrupt which. I can't debate "everybody loves Batman".

Bruce can't compete with the level of government accessibility that Stark has. It wouldn't even be close.
Lolwut?! XD
This really has the potential to go either way, it depends on share holders/management. It'd be more appropriate to ask who has more accumulated wealth, and that honor goes to Wayne. We need more details to make a determination though.

He announced to the world that Batman Inc was a thing and there were, to my knowledge, absolutely 0 legal issues that anyone used to bring his company around his ears. Batman experts like @frozen could back me up on this.
And what do you mean 'doesn't do well in the thread debating which company would bankrupt which'? Companies in comicbooks go bankrupt all the time. Why, Tony Stark's been bankrupt plenty of times.
As a scholar, I have nothing but respect for your accomplishment (a business degree in a pretty impressive thing, solid work bro) but this is comicbooks we're talking about. In a world where aliens shoot lasers from their eyes and men can get decapitated and still talk as long as they can heal, a lack of SEC is probably not too far fetched.
We all know what Stark Industries does (defense contracts, robotics, and high-tech stuff).
Wayne Enterprises apparently does shipping, food import/export, naval warship building, industrial research & development, healthcare, general household electronics, and major entertainments centers... So basically everywhere.
Wayne Enterprises apparently has more annual income than Stark Industries as well from everything I can search through Google. Tony being able to rebuild his empire doesn't matter, it's who puts who out of business first, not who can rebuild. So, I'd say that Bruce wins this due to having both more income & variety in his business strategy.
Bruce's company has never crashed to my knowledge(happened once Pre Crisis) Tony on the other hand has lost it many times.
For those who think the Wayne estate is run by morons think again,Lucius(entire family of geniuses),Alfred,Bruce himself and at times Tim.Even Damian has attended board meetings.
