Would you accept equity investment for your business?

[Niyi Briggs]

With equity funding, you are expected to hand over the ownership of your business by 50%. That's why it is called equity funding. The investor would give you an agreed amount of money to be used in the business.

The funds can be used for expansion or set up of the business itself. Would you accept equity funding for your business? Or you don't want anyone to share ownership of your business with you?

I would accept equity investment if I think that the benefits outweigh the costs and if I have a good relationship with the investor.

You don't need to have a good relationship with the investor. The only thing you need is to ascertain if the investor has the growth of the business as their primary focus.
