But attracting investors is not as easy as in the past. In the past, only the credibility of the promoter was enough. Investors did not care about the feasibility of the business the promoter was going to start. It had its own pros and cons. It means the promoter will be held accountable and liable if the business venture fails and he will be compelled to pay back the investment (despite the loss) to the investors. Or the business will be profitable, but the investors can keep on asking for more, as there was no pre-understanding on how the business was expected to perform. This can result in conflicts and that can lead to bitter relationships between the promoters/ entrepreneurs and investors. On the other hand, even the investors can be subject to abuse and manipulation. This happens when the investors do not know for what the fund was to be used, resulting in the diversion of funds to other personal objectives of the promoters.
