Types of Venture Debt
Venture debt is typically structured as one of three types:
- Growth capital: Typically term loans, used as equity round replacements, for M&A activity, milestone financing or working capital.
- Accounts receivable financing: borrowings against the accounts receivable item on the balance sheet.
- Equipment financing: loans for the purchase of equipment such as network infrastructure.
The venture lender effectively piggybacks on the due diligence done by the venture capital firm.

—Loris Malaguzzi (1920–1994)

“The debt was the most sacred obligation incurred during the war. It was by no means the largest in amount. We do not haggle with those who lent us money. We should not with those who gave health and blood and life. If doors are opened to fraud, contrive to close them. But don’t deny the obligation, or scold at its performance.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
