unleveraged
Purely equity-funded
Unleveraged describes something financed without borrowed money or debt.
In finance, an unleveraged investment uses only the investor's own capital, carrying less risk but typically lower potential returns than leveraged positions: an unleveraged portfolio, unleveraged returns.
The term appears most often in investment and real estate contexts.
