How do you verify accredited investor status?

We integrate with third-party verification services that meet SEC standards for 506(c) offerings. This includes income verification, net worth documentation, and professional certification reviews (Series 7, Series 65, CFA). For qualified purchasers, we support the enhanced $5M investment threshold verification.

What compliance frameworks do you follow?

All materials align with SEC Regulation D, Investment Advisers Act of 1940, FINRA advertising rules, and state blue sky laws. We prepare DDQ-ready content, Form ADV Part 2 compliant messaging, and GIPS-aligned performance presentations.

Can you help with Form D filings and ongoing compliance?

We support the marketing aspects around Form D filings and provide materials that align with your offering memorandum and PPM. We coordinate with your legal counsel on Rule 506 compliance and amendment filings as your raise progresses.

What is your experience with institutional due diligence?

Our materials are built to withstand institutional LP due diligence including operational due diligence (ODD) reviews. We prepare DDQ responses, GIPS-compliant track records, and institutional-grade pitch materials that meet pension fund and endowment standards.
