Capital Efficiency
Definition
A measure of how much growth or revenue a company generates for each pound of investment it spends.
Why it matters
High capital efficiency means you achieve more with less cash, which makes your business more attractive and resilient.
Example
A startup that grows to £1m revenue on just £200k of funding is showing strong capital efficiency.
