Abstract
Company financing, in its simplest form, can be debt or equity. In this article, we explore some of the rich variety of financial instruments that lie on the risk–return continuum between these two extremes, and consider when their use might be appropriate. Various kinds of debt and equity are reviewed, together with hybrid instruments and other types of financing, such as securitisation and leasing.
