In both public and private markets, securities are fungible, tradeable financial instruments used to raise cash. The phrase can be used to refer to any kind of financial instrument, however different jurisdictions have different legal definitions for it. The three main categories of securities are:

  • Equity, which gives investors ownership rights
  • Debt, which is effectively a loan returned with recurring payments
  • Hybrids include features of both debt and equity.
