Self-Financing
(redirected from self-financed)

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Encyclopedia 0.01 sec.
Self-Financing
The act or practice of using one's own capital to provide funding for a project or company. Self-financing allows the creator of the project or company to maintain control apart from outside influence. It also allows the project or company to grow without debt. It is famously said that Ross Perot established Electronic Data Systems with $1,000 in personal savings. This is an example of self-financing.

There is the possibility that there could be a downside for those in lower-paid occupations regarding self-funding a pension, in that there is the risk that while you have saved and self-financed your fund may not keep up with inflation (as today's mortgage endowments policies show) thus leaving you short of your target.
