English term or phrase: angel investor
Definition from VentureLine:
Angel investor is a private wealthy individual that has no association with a venture capital firm, investment fund, etc. The "angel" invests his/her private money into what he/she believes to be promising opportunities, i.e., normally startup companies. Sometimes two or more "angels" will jointly invest into opportunities to spread the risk.

Example sentence(s):
  • Investors seeking a more active role may ask for common equity. This enables the angel to take a place on the board of directors and allows for much more active participation in company management. An arrangement such as this works well for angel investors who are keenly interested in hands-on involvement in the business. Business Management Daily
  • Angel investors are typically retired professionals that are looking to give young entrepreneurs some funding. It just kind of implies that they are nicer than regular investors. There are network sites that try to put people into contact with angel investors. theangelinvestorsite.com
  • I am purchasing a business and expanding it. I have found an angel investor and I need to know what forms and documents need to be written and what needs to be filed. Entrepreneur

angyali befektető or üzleti angyal
Definition:
"Az angyal befektetők azok az emberek, akik egy adott piac nagyon jó ismerőjeként nagyon korai fázisban fektetnek be cégekbe és projektekbe. Gyakran a saját pézüket kockáztatják. Vannak speciálisan erre szakosodott szakemberek, de gyakran családtagok és barátok is eljátszhatják az angyal jellegű befektető szerepét. A lényeg, hogy ezek a befektetők általában segítenek a projektek megalapozásában, a benne rejlő potenciál részletesebb kifejtésében, például azzal, hogy segítenek eljutni a prototípus szintre, hogy aztán komolyabb kockázati tőke befektetőkkel megtámogatva történjen meg a piaci bevezetés."

Example sentence(s):
  • "business angels Üzleti angyal. Sikeres üzleti múltra visszatekintő magánszemélyek, akik tőkét fektetnek be újonnan induló innovatív cégekbe, személyesen közreműködéssel, tanácsokkal segítve a cégvezetést." - Pénportál  

Explanation:
I do not think it makes sense to give 2 different solutions separately. These 2 terms are synonyms and both are used in Hungarian.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angel_investor

"An angel investor or angel (known as a business angel or informal investor in Europe) is an affluent individual who provides capital for a business start-up, usually in exchange for convertible debt or ownership equity. A small but increasing number of angel investors organize themselves into angel groups or angel networks to share research and pool their investment capital."
