Iris Capital And The Role Of Venture Debt In Start Ups

Venture Capital is common as a source of funding for start up's but its usually equity rather than debt. We speak to Dato' Wan Kamaruzaman Wan Ahmad, Chairman of Iris Capital Partners as to the advantages and disadvantages of using debt whilst delving into what sectors they are focusing in. We also ask about his views on the Malaysian economy and why our capital markets are so anemic.
