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.

5. A startup is a human institution
designed to deliver a new product or
service under conditions of extreme
uncertainty
Eric Ries
Founder, the Lean Startup Methodology
Theleanstartup.com
6. The Art of the Start
Six lessons for your stupid little startup
9. It does not start from a business idea
It starts from Skeptic 2 founder rule
people Leader
Incubation
takes years
Multi-skilled
Team & talents
Values
12. Three origins of great startups
• Copycats: Copy existing business
model to new markets
• Evolutionary: Seek better solution
to existing problems
• Revolutionary: Seek unknown
solution to unknown problems
The best ideas come on cross-roads
of trends and disciplines
13. The What
• The 30-seconds pitch:
tell your granny
– Who is your customer
– What does your
company do for this
customer
– Why are you better than
competition
• Do you pass the “Google
test”?
16. The life of any startup can
be divided into two parts –
before product/market fit
and after product/market fit
Marc Andreessen
Founder, Netscape
Partner, Andreessen Horowitz
17. Why pivot?
Not a single great company
follows its original business
idea
Failure is not a problem
Slow failure is a
problem
18. The importance of milestones
• MVP (Minimum Viable Product): 48 hrs – 3
months
• Initial customer validation: 1 week – 6 months
• One million something (users, $$$, etc): 1-2
years
• You shall pivot if:
– Your solution seeks a problem, not vice versa
– Nobody wants to use your product – even you
– You have ceased to believe into your company for >1
month
20. Why speed?
• Startups, by very
definition, are
probabilistic
• Success seems
intentional only in
retrospective –
impossible to compute
21. In unpredictable environments
speed and focus
are the best boosters of success rate
And hunger is the best factor
contributing to it
22. The ultimate example of being focused
“I was too busy, I didn’t do
things like that… I just didn’t go
and meet new people who
were involved in investments.”
Bill Gates
Founder, Microsoft
on refusing to meet Warren Buffet
