Private Equity has its advantages when structured correctly at the appropriate time, maintaining or achieving a commercially acceptable ratio. Equity financing is ideal for companies that are unable to obtain sufficient funds through retained earnings or currently have limited access to the debt capital markets.  

 

Unlike a loan, the company is not obligated to repay the principal and it is in the investor's own interest to enhance and accelerate the company's growth providing management with an additional in-house source of advisory and expertise.
