FAQ

Equity investment, your questions

What is the difference between a minority and a majority stake?
In a minority stake, the investor holds less than half the equity and supports without controlling; the owner keeps the lead. In a majority stake, the investor takes control, usually in a transmission or transformation context.
What is growth capital?
Growth capital means investing in a profitable company to fund a new stage: organic growth, market expansion, acquisitions or a reshaping of the shareholding.
What does an investor look at before investing?
The quality of the team, profitability and recurrence of the business, the market and the development project. The relationship of trust with the owner is decisive.
Is a shareholders' agreement necessary?
Yes. The agreement frames governance, key decisions and exit terms. It protects each party and clarifies the rules from the moment of investment.
