The equity ratio divides total equity, including non-controlling interests, by total assets. Net debt is not shown for banks, insurers and other financial companies: for them, cash and bonds are part of the business and are not available to pay down debt. For banks the equity ratio is usually low because customer deposits carry much of the balance sheet.
