When a company is growing rapidly, it is rarely able to finance expansion from cash flow alone. Therefore, it needs to raise finance from external resources.

When looking at resources of new business finance, it is really important to strike a balance between equity and debt.

What are the key differences between the two?

With debt, the bank giving the loan requires interest payment and capital repayments; and the assets of the shareholders and directors can be at risk if these are not met.

The bank can put the business into administration or bankruptcy if defaults on the loan or if business is not going well.
With equity, the institution lending the money has a stake in the business and therefore, a greater incentive to see the business succeed, as it takes the risk of failure along with all the other shareholders.

On the other hand, if the company is successful, equity investors benefit and make profits on the eventual sale of their equity stake.
