Abstract

Instrumente der Außenfinanzierung werden üblicherweise in Eigenkapital und Fremdkapital unterteilt. Die in der Finanzwirtschaft entwickelten Abgrenzungsmerkmale führen zu einer guten Charaktesierung verschiedener Finanzierungsinstrumente. Die Wahl des Merkmals "Rechststellung im Konkurs" als hartes Unterscheidungskriterium ist allerdings nicht frei von Willkür und wird nicht allen Zwecken gerecht. Der Beitrag schlägt vor, zur Klassifizierung von Finanzierungsinstrumenten konsequent am damit verbundenen Zweck anzusetzen. Statt einer diskreten Einteilung werden stetige Maße empfohlen. Zwei einfache Varianten einer kapitalmarktorientierten und produktionsfaktororientierten Lösung stehen zur Diskussion.
