Equity Capital
Equity Capital Funding unlike debt, equity does not require the capital to be returned at a specific time through an amortization schedule. This provides business owners with the flexibility to retain the capital and reinvest it in the company, whether it be for infrastructure development or acquiring intellectual property.
When considering an equity raise, there are several factors that business owners must consider. Firstly, they need to determine the amount of capital required for the business to grow and the timeframe in which it is needed. Additionally, they must assess how much ownership and control they are willing to relinquish and the ultimate goal for raising capital. They must also be prepared to invest time in the capital raising process and consider how it may impact their ability to focus on the business’ growth. Furthermore, the number of investors required to meet the equity financing requirements and understand their investment objectives must be identified.
