SVOP reserve

Financing Equity

The unrestricted equity reserve of a Finnish limited company, money invested into the company without issuing new shares on day one. It is the standard route for founder and investor contributions, and the usual legal wrapper for SAFE-style investments in Finland.

Why it matters

Money comes in quickly without a valuation or new shares up front, but put in writing what the investor receives later.
