Equity financing requires that you sell an ownership interest in the business in exchange for capital.
The most basic hurdle to equity financing is finding investors who are willing to buy into your business; however, the amount of equity financing that you undertake may depend more upon your willingness to share management control than upon the investor appeal of the business.
The effect of selling a large percentage of the ownership interest in your business may mean that your own investment will be short-term, unless you retain a majority interest in the business and control over future sale of the business.

 FRB: Supervisory Letter 00-9 (SPE) on equity investment and merchant banking activities--June 22, 2000
Over the past several years, investing in equities and equity interests of non-public companies, and lending to private equity-financed companies, have emerged as increasingly important sources of earnings and business relationships at a number of banking organizations.
The guidance is general in scope and is intended to apply to the equity investment activities of financial holding companies, bank holding companies, state member banks, and their subsidiaries and affiliates -- regardless of the statutory or regulatory authority under which investments are made.
In supervising equity investment and merchant banking activities, the Federal Reserve's primary objective is to identify material risks to, and promote the safety and soundness of, state member banks conducting these activities and of banks and other insured depository institutions affiliated with BHCs engaged in these business lines.
