I was speaking with my manager to request for funds and he was telling me the series of financing that I can apply too in financial institutions. There are three main sources of funding applicable in business e.g debt financing, equity financing and grants.

Debt financing: that involves borrowing money from a lender for example a bank or other financial institution in exchange for interest payments over time.

Equity financing: is when investors provide capital to the business in exchange for ownership stakes.

Grants: are also funds that provided by government agencies, foundations or private organizations that do not need to be repaid but may come with certain conditions attached.

Now am thinking of the one applicable to my business because those three type of funding can help businesses grow and succeed if used wisely.

The three main sources of funding for business and commercial endeavors include debt financing such as traditional business loans which must be repaid, equity financing which involves trading partial company ownership for investments, and internally-generated financing using the profits earned or owner capital contributions to self-fund growth initiatives eliminating outside investors and debt obligations. Most companies utilize a mixed strategy leveraging all three over various life cycle stages.
