What is an angel investor? How do they invest? What's the difference between an angel investor and a venture capitalist?
This presentation answers all these questions, and also includes tips from actual angel investors on what you can do to impress an angel.
Angel investing is a great way to participate in the growing trend of entrepreneurship. Responsible investing is very important for the health of your portfolio and for your relationships with founders. Don't invest without understanding a few simple things. Equity investments are long term relationships. Investors must do their part to be good investment partners.
Managing startup equity (Equity For Startups)Kesava Reddy
Among the more important decisions that an entrepreneur makes is that of raising capital. Many choices have to be made in this context: Debt versus Equity. Own funds versus Funding from outside investors and so on. These choices have long term implications for the entrepreneur as well as the start-up. Equity funding is essential for the growth of a startup. Apart from providing critical funding equity investors also often bring added value by way of connections and strategic advice.
At the same time raising equity capital means sharing control and sharing wealth with the investors in the firm. Allowing investors to engage with the management of the startup calls for a certain degree of compatibility between the investor and the management of the enterprise. Absence of such compatibility can lead to unhappy relationships between the investor and the management team.
All things considered, managing the equity of a start-up is among the most critical decisions that an entrepreneur needs to make. It involves many trade-offs on the entrepreneurial journey. Which makes Managing the Equity of A Start Up a challenge. What does dilution of equity mean? How does the arithmetic of dilution work? How does an entrepreneur decide on when to raise equity? And how much of equity to raise?

Designing an Investment Portfolio
Designing an investment portfolio may be the most important thing you do in investing. There are tips and insights to make you money but over the long haul profitable investing hinges on hedging investment risk as well as picking winners. Here are a few insights into designing an investment portfolio.
Matching Portfolio Risk to the Investor
We have often noted that as an investor ages he or she will commonly want to move to dividend stocks instead of riskier investment. Business Insider gives an example of analyzing the portfolio of a retiree for risk.
What’s one trademark of a poorly designed investment portfolio? The answer is a portfolio whose risk character is incompatible with the risk character of its owner.
Frequently, these risk incompatibilities are camouflaged by a hot stock market. But when the market reverses and begins to fall like it has lately, the problems of investment portfolios with unsuitable risk levels becomes apparent.
Factors to consider are cost, diversification, risk, tax efficiency and long term performance. You may be invested in a fund that pays good returns but those returns are largely eaten up by fees and commissions. If you were invested heavily in big oil you lost heavily when the price of oil fell. Diversification across various market sectors is good. Tax free or tax advantaged investments are good if you are still in your earning years but less important as you retire. Risk and long term performance are closely related. As the author says when the market is hot all stocks look good but when it falls only strong companies hold their value. If you would like to sleep well at night load up on long term strong performers.
Unexpected Outcomes
Sometimes strategies for designing an investment portfolio do not work out as expected. The New York Times writes about investment strategies mean to lessen volatility and how they may not have worked as expected.
Recently, I had the opportunity to present at StartUp 2015 in Varna, Bulgaria. As part of Angelsbootcamp.org, we share our prorams with local startup ecosystems throughout Europe.

The European Unemployment Puzzle: implications from population agingGRAPE
We study the link between the evolving age structure of the working population and unemployment. We build a large new Keynesian OLG model with a realistic age structure, labor market frictions, sticky prices, and aggregate shocks. Once calibrated to the European economy, we quantify the extent to which demographic changes over the last three decades have contributed to the decline of the unemployment rate. Our findings yield important implications for the future evolution of unemployment given the anticipated further aging of the working population in Europe. We also quantify the implications for optimal monetary policy: lowering inflation volatility becomes less costly in terms of GDP and unemployment volatility, which hints that optimal monetary policy may be more hawkish in an aging society. Finally, our results also propose a partial reversal of the European-US unemployment puzzle due to the fact that the share of young workers is expected to remain robust in the US.
Financial Assets: Debit vs Equity Securities.pptxWrito-Finance
financial assets represent claim for future benefit or cash. Financial assets are formed by establishing contracts between participants. These financial assets are used for collection of huge amounts of money for business purposes.
Two major Types: Debt Securities and Equity Securities.
Debt Securities are Also known as fixed-income securities or instruments. The type of assets is formed by establishing contracts between investor and issuer of the asset.
• The first type of Debit securities is BONDS. Bonds are issued by corporations and government (both local and national government).
• The second important type of Debit security is NOTES. Apart from similarities associated with notes and bonds, notes have shorter term maturity.
• The 3rd important type of Debit security is TRESURY BILLS. These securities have short-term ranging from three months, six months, and one year. Issuer of such securities are governments.
• Above discussed debit securities are mostly issued by governments and corporations. CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSITS CDs are issued by Banks and Financial Institutions. Risk factor associated with CDs gets reduced when issued by reputable institutions or Banks.
Following are the risk attached with debt securities: Credit risk, interest rate risk and currency risk
There are no fixed maturity dates in such securities, and asset’s value is determined by company’s performance. There are two major types of equity securities: common stock and preferred stock.
Common Stock: These are simple equity securities and bear no complexities which the preferred stock bears. Holders of such securities or instrument have the voting rights when it comes to select the company’s board of director or the business decisions to be made.
Preferred Stock: Preferred stocks are sometime referred to as hybrid securities, because it contains elements of both debit security and equity security. Preferred stock confers ownership rights to security holder that is why it is equity instrument
<a href="https://www.writofinance.com/equity-securities-features-types-risk/" >Equity securities </a> as a whole is used for capital funding for companies. Companies have multiple expenses to cover. Potential growth of company is required in competitive market. So, these securities are used for capital generation, and then uses it for company’s growth.
Concluding remarks
Both are employed in business. Businesses are often established through debit securities, then what is the need for equity securities. Companies have to cover multiple expenses and expansion of business. They can also use equity instruments for repayment of debits. So, there are multiple uses for securities. As an investor, you need tools for analysis. Investment decisions are made by carefully analyzing the market. For better analysis of the stock market, investors often employ financial analysis of companies.

What is a verified pi merchant?
Since pi network is not launched yet on any exchange, the only way you can sell pi coins is by selling to a verified pi merchant, and this is because pi network is not launched yet on any exchange and no pre-sale or ico offerings Is done on pi.
Since there is no pre-sale, the only way exchanges can get pi is by buying from miners. So a pi merchant facilitates these transactions by acting as a bridge for both transactions.
