difference between Equity Capital and Preference capital?

Answer Posted / malu

equity share holders receive dividends from the company.
preference share holders receive a fixed rate of interest.
however, equity share holders receive dividends only after
the preference share holders have been given their returns.
equity share holders thus have to bear the risks, because
even if there are losses, they bear the losses, not the
preference share holders
