financer
Funds the venture
A financer is someone who provides money for a project, venture, or enterprise.
The word overlaps with financier but carries a slightly more informal tone, suggesting anyone who funds something rather than specifically a professional in high finance: The film's financers pulled out at the last minute.
Sometimes spelled financier in formal contexts.
