Equities
Equities are another word for stocks or shares denoting ownership in a company. If you have equity in a company, you own a part of that company and are entitled to a part of the company's future earnings.
You could attain exposure to equities by investing in the stock market, being an employee in a company that gives you stocks/stock options, or being an owner of a business.
