This is different. Equity (law) is a remedial form of law, a branch of the law of remedies. Equity (finance) is the residual claim or interest of the most junior class of investors in assets. The latter is from the perspective of accounting and finance.

People are purchasing items as investors possessing a portion, interest, claim, stake in an item holding it in servitude (Roman Civil Law).

This is all in contradistinction to holding an item in dominion (Roman Civil Law) or in allodium (English Common Law).

Let it also be said possessing these equities in your own name is probably prima facie evidence of income and thus liable for tax.
