Venture Capital Defined

Source of financing for start-up companies and new or turnaround ventures that involve investment risk but offer the prospect for above average future profits--also called "risk capital". Venture capital financing supplements other funds that an entrepreneur is able to tap (or takes the place of loans that conventional financial institutions are unwilling to risk). Venture capital sources include wealthy individual investors, subsidiaries of banks, small business investment companies (SBICs), groups of investment banks and venture capital limited partnerships. In return for taking an investment risk, venture capitalists are commonly rewarded with either profits, royalties, preferred stock, capital appreciation of shares or any combination thereof.
