		+	'''Capital structure''' refers to the proportion of a company's capital that is financed through debt and equity. It is an important aspect of a company's financial management, as it can affect the company's risk and return profile, as well as its ability to raise capital and finance growth.
		+
		+	There are two main types of capital that a company can use to finance its operations: debt and equity. Debt capital refers to the funds that a company borrows from lenders, such as banks or bondholders. Equity capital refers to the funds that a company raises from shareholders, through the sale of stock or other equity instruments.
		+
		+	The capital structure of a company is typically represented by the debt-to-equity ratio, which is calculated by dividing the company's total debt by its total equity. A high debt-to-equity ratio indicates that a company is heavily reliant on debt financing, while a low debt-to-equity ratio indicates that a company is financed primarily through equity.
		+
		+	There is no one-size-fits-all capital structure that is appropriate for all companies, and the optimal capital structure will depend on a variety of factors, such as the company's industry, risk profile, and growth prospects. In general, a company that is highly leveraged (i.e., has a high debt-to-equity ratio) may be more vulnerable to financial distress, but may also be able to generate higher returns for shareholders. Conversely, a company that is more conservatively financed (i.e., has a low debt-to-equity ratio) may be less risky, but may also generate lower returns for shareholders.
