Capital - Deepstash

Capital

Capital is the purchase of an ownership stake in a business. For parties that have resources to allocate, providing Capital is a way to help owners of new or existing businesses expand or enter new markets.

In order to provide value via Capital, you must:

  • Have a pool of resources available to invest.
  • Find a promising business in which you’d be willing to invest.
  • Estimate how much that business is currently worth, how much it may be worth in the future, and the probability that the business will go under, which would result in the loss of your Capital.
  • Negotiate the amount of ownership you’d receive in exchange for the amount of Capital you’re investing.
