(noun) - an asymmetrical business arrangement, usually in employment, where the risks of loss are concentrated on the employee to ensure that the employee has guaranteed losses on any business reversals and contingent returns on any positive developments.
You have mountains of downside equity in that contract. The partners can deduct from your paycheck to make you eat the cost of delays that the partners exclusively control. They can swallow your commission if their client doesn't pay. They can even recapture from your future salary any underpayment with the negative carry-forward that they've imposed. On the whole, you're just a sharecropper with a JD.

A state in which different racial groups have equal outcomes in areas such as test scores, income, arrests, etc.
It is often confused with racial equality and equal opportunity. However, achieving equity usually involves increasing or decreasing opportunities for some groups in order to obtain equal outcomes.
"The company will be introducing quotas to achieve racial equity in hiring."
"Affirmative action programs aim to promote racial equity in college admissions."

(FINANCE) a financial derivative whose underlying asset is a stock. The simplest kinds include the equity swap and the option.
As opposed to currency derivatives, interest rate derivatives, commodity derivatives, and so on. An equity swap typically involves an "equity side" of the transaction AND something else, like interest rates or oil prices.
Equity derivatives can be written on indices (e.g., the S&P 500, the FTSE-100, NASDAQ) as well as on stocks. In fact, they are often bought "out of the money" by mutual fund managers as insurance against a catastrophic decline in the fund value.
One other reason that poison pills are back in favor is the growth of synthetic equity derivative swap transactions, where a “short party” agrees to pay a “long party” the cash flows from a particular amount of a target company’s stock. In exchange, the long party agrees to pay a fee and to cover any decrease in the market value of the stock ... Through such transactions, a long party can suddenly become a significant stockholder of a target company without warning.

The value that sports brings to business. Sports drives dollar and awareness to brands.
Sports equity creates business opportunities for brand partnerships.
A room, or any type of contained area, in which sweat represents a substantial portion of the space, resulting in a palpable wetness in the air.
Person 1: Have you danced in the basement yet? It's so crowded.
Person 2: Yeah man, it's a sweat equity down there.

The portion of space content occupies on a screen.
Post that photo in 4x5 instead of 1x1, it takes up a lot more screen equity and will gain more attention.
