we increased our leverage ratio by borrowing from private equity firms
Leverage Ratio
In risk analysis, any ratio that measures a company's leverage. One example of a gearing ratio is the long-term debt/capitalization ratio, which is calculated by taking the company's long-term debt and dividing it by its long-term debt added to its preferred and common stock. Another example is a simple debt-to-equity ratio, which is calculated by dividing total debt by total equity. Generally, companies with higher leverage as determined by a leverage ratio are thought to be more risky because they have more liabilities and less equity. A leverage ratio is also called a gearing ratio or an equity multiplier.
A private equity firm is an investment management company that provides financial backing and makes investments in the private equity of startup or operating companies through a variety of loosely affiliated investment strategies including leveraged buyout, venture capital, and growth capital.

: Where do you see any "ratio"? Why don't you call the duck a duck and use "venture/risk capital"? // First has nothing to do with the question; second is a carrot amongst the veggies; I doubt that the ministerio... qualifies as a private equity firm.
