What do you mean by "allow access to financing"? A fair number of founders maintain their stock ownership through an entity like an LLC. This could be for all sorts of reasons (tax planning, separating assets/liability). I would expect a potential investor (or their lawyers) to ask for the reasoning behind the structure, but assuming it's a relatively simple answer, that would be unlikely to have any major effect on the investment decision.
