In today context, market competition is intense. Indeed, firms have to innovate constantly to survive. However, innovation usually involves high cost coupled to many uncertainty and risk. Accordingly, innovation often turns out to be a challenge to fund through traditional loans. Hence, firms rely on shareholders for funding it.
