Answer / amit kapoor
The phrase `sweat equity' refers to equity shares given to
the company's employees on favourable terms, in recognition
of their work. Sweat equity usually takes the form of
giving options to employees to buy shares of the company,
so they become part owners and participate in the profits,
apart from earning salary.

Sweet equity is mostly found with Private equity managers and is always involved with normal and preference shares or loans which have a fixed interest. This way the managers get rewarded for making a higher Return on Investment. After the fixed percentages are paid all the extra ROI comes to the normal shares. An example can show how it works:
PE managers have all the normal shares, nominal value 20.000
PE firm places preference shares with ROI of 6% for a value of 0.98 million. (normally this is much higher)
If the ROI on all funds is 10% the total ROI will be 100.000. The PE house gets 0.06 x 980.000 = approx 60.000.
The PE manager will get the other 40.000. With an initial investment of 20.000 het gets a ROI of 200%. Thats sweet (equity)
