Private Investments

What is the exempt market / private market?

Investment in the private market (commonly called “exempt market” or “alternative investment”) gives investors the opportunity to diversify their investment portfolio in assets that are not offered by traditional institutions. Private investments place, among other assets, capital in mortgage pools, asset-backed securities, debt securities and equity instruments in private enterprises.

The prospectus exemption on the offering memorandum lets companies sell their securities to a broad range of investors according to an offering memorandum. An offering memorandum is a document which provides an overview of the business and internal affairs of a company.
Any buyer is able to obtain securities under this exemption, but there are limits, depending on the province and whether or not the investor qualifies.

With this in mind, Eric will advise you on your exemption category and on suitable products for your portfolio. In addition, he will determine with you the type of investor you are and will prepare a tailored, competitive and realistic investment strategy.
