Startups y proceso de 'levantar capital'

Imagen
  Las startups 'levantan capital' para financiar su expansión, no a sus directivos: es obvio pero vale la pena recordarlo. Startups: Levantar Capital es conseguir un inversor que va invertir en el negocio, pero ¿a cambio de qué? Las  Startups  precisan de grandes inversiones para financiar su expansión y es mejor no tomar ese dinero en un banco, por volumen, por costos y por condiciones. Quizás tampoco por plazos. La clave es sumarle valor a una  empresa , y si esto se logra más adelante podría ocurrir un 'derrame' de la riqueza producida. Pero cada paso debe realizarse 'paso a paso'. Y no debe distribuirse lo que no se tiene. Aclarado esto es oportuno ir a una interesante columna elaborada por  Dr. Andrés Burecovics , abogado, especialista en Derecho Interjurisdiccional: Quien recaudó el monto de 40 millones fue la empresa, no los socios, por lo tanto ese dinero no es de los founders, aunque sí pueden administrarlo bajo estricto control para lograr los objetivo

  Governments Must Choose to Support or Restructure Heavily Indebted Firms (Image: IMF photos) By  Ceyla Pazarbasioglu  and  Rhoda Weeks-Brown To stave off risks to recovery, policymakers should focus support on firms that can survive and prepare to restructure or liquidate those that cannot.  Companies entered the COVID-19 crisis with record debts they racked up after the global financial crisis when interest rates were low. Corporate debt stood at $83 trillion, or 98 percent of the world’s gross domestic product, at the end of 2020. Advanced economies and China accounted for 90 percent of the $8.9 trillion increase in 2020. Now that central banks are raising rates to check inflation, firms’ debt servicing costs will increase. Corporate vulnerabilities will be exposed as governments scale back the fiscal support that they extended to stricken firms at the height of the crisis. Governments face difficult decisions as they manage these risks to the economic recovery. They may need to co

Friday, February 11th, 2022 Wherever you looked this week, it seemed that Iran was at the center of all oil market news. The prospect of a breakthrough in the nuclear deal, a breakthrough that was assumed to be imminent by several participants, drove oil prices lower over the week after last week’s bull run to mid $90s.
