Seed and Angel Capital
This strategic advisory involves money being provided by investors to start-up firms and small businesses with bright ideas and good perceived long-term growth potential. This is an extremely vital source of funding for start-ups that do not have access to capital markets. It typically entails high risk for the investor, but it has the potential for above-average returns.
Venture Capital
Venture Capital advisory includes wealth being provided by large investors and funds to high-potential startup companies and small businesses with perceived long-term growth. This is a very important source of funding for startups that do not have access to capital markets. The typical venture capital investment occurs after the seed funding round as the first round of institutional capital to fund growth.
Private Equity
What defines Private Equity (PE) Fund is their approach to investing. Private Equity (PE) Funds unlike the stock markets, invest in businesses and not in stocks. They have sharp insights, patience and deep pockets which helps them provide Equity to build the growth paradigm of a business and take it to the next level.

Mezzanine Financing
Mezzanine financing is a hybrid combination of debt and equity financing that is typically used to finance the expansion of existing companies. Mezzanine financing is basically debt capital that gives the lender the rights to convert to an ownership or equity interest in the company if the loan is not paid back in time and in full. Since mezzanine financing is usually provided to the borrower very quickly with little due diligence on the part of the lender and little or no collateral on the part of the borrower, this type of financing is aggressively priced with the lender seeking a return in the 20-30% range.
