Equity is the entity’s overall worth. It is what is left in a company’s assets after you deduct the liabilities.

Assets – liabilities = equity

Equity consists of a number of components:

Share capital: the amount that the shareholders have invested in the company in return for shares

Retained earnings: earnings retained by the company

Simply put, you can say that equity is the value of the company.
