How to Prepare Your Startup for Venture Capital Investmentideatoipo
Getting venture capital funding is the ultimate yet often elusive goal of many Silicon Valley startups. Venture capital funding dramatically improves a startup's chances of having a big IPO or buy out exit. Most startups at their inception have the hope, if not the expectation, that they will eventually receive venture capital funding.
In the current environment, venture capital funding has become more competitive, but it is still available. This presentation will cover what a startup should do to prepare for venture funding, what essential steps to take, what venture capitalists expect and how to avoid venture capital deal breakers.

Angel investors provide the majority of early stage funding for startups. They are high net worth individuals who invest their own money in companies, often locally, and typically invest between $25,000-$500,000. Angels fill an important role by providing the earliest professional funding for startups between friends/family and venture capital. They invest at the seed and startup stages where 90% of outside equity comes from angels.

How to Form an Angel or Venture Fund: Legal, Business and Tax Strategiesideatoipo
While large amounts of pooled capital continue to be invested in startups, the legal, tax and regulatory environment continues to evolve.

Family offices are set to deploy over $30 billion in fresh and reallocated capital to hedge funds in the next 12 months, according to a Barclays study. Specifically, family offices will make $4 billion in fresh investments and reshuffle $29 billion of existing investments, with the capital flowing primarily to long/short equity, event-driven, and global macro strategies. At the same time, an effort by fund-of-funds manager Attalus Capital to transition to single-manager hedge funds has largely failed, with its assets shrinking to just $300 million as clients did not redeploy capital to its new funds.

This document discusses the evolution of board compensation structures from past to present to future. Historically, boards were primarily compensated with salaries, but this structure failed to properly incentivize directors to increase shareholder value. Currently, most boards receive an equity-based compensation of stocks or stock options in addition to salary. However, this can make boards risk-averse. In the future, some propose paying directors bonuses tied to stock performance relative to industry peers as a "pay for performance" structure. However, this may incentivize short-term thinking. The author proposes a hybrid structure with performance bonuses for all directors to balance short and long-term incentives.
The document discusses the JOBS Act and its provisions for crowdfunding and raising capital. It allows small businesses and startups to raise up to $1 million from online investments. Medium and larger firms can raise up to $50 million annually. The SEC must also reach out to women and minority-owned firms. Crowdfunding will have a disruptive impact by providing financing options for difficult to finance small businesses. However, many requirements and details still need to be addressed, such as standards for financial disclosures and investor education. Platforms will also need to register and help manage the crowdfunding process to facilitate these small business investments.

2. Barriers to CSEF in Australia include rules limiting proprietary companies to 50 non-employee shareholders and investment caps. Compliance costs are also high for small proprietary companies raising nominal capital.

The Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) was a $700 billion emergency fund established by the U.S. government in 2008 to stabilize the country's financial system during the subprime mortgage crisis. TARP provided capital to financial institutions to strengthen their balance sheets and increase lending. While TARP helped prevent further economic damage, it faced criticism for bailing out Wall Street firms and not providing enough aid to struggling homeowners or small businesses. Some TARP recipients, like large banks, repaid funds but grew significantly in size, treated TARP as a way to socialize losses from risky behavior.

2008 Stock Market Disaster Revised September 2012 For SlideshareJoe Collins
The 2008 Stock Market Disaster
The document summarizes the key events and factors that led to the 2008 stock market crisis. It discusses how deregulation of the banking industry in the 1990s allowed banks to engage in risky behaviors like predatory lending and investing in mortgage-backed securities and derivatives. It also examines the role of government policies like the Community Reinvestment Act in pressuring banks to lower lending standards. Ultimately, unregulated trading of mortgage-backed securities and derivatives like credit default swaps led to the crisis when the housing bubble burst in 2007-2008.

Challenging what you think you know about the Madoff FraudIlene Kent
Bernard Madoff operated a multi-billion dollar Ponzi scheme that was revealed in 2008. This left many elderly investors destitute who had lost their life savings. There were three financial "tsunamis" that impacted Madoff investors: 1) Losing their investments, 2) SIPC failing to honor its obligation to replace lost securities up to $500,000, and 3) investors getting sued to repay fictitious profits. The trustee handling the Madoff liquidation, Irving Picard, took unprecedented actions against investors by narrowly defining net equity contrary to past precedent and SIPA law. This excluded many investors from recovering anything and led to extensive clawback litigation. Madoff investors want SIPC to
The document discusses GLG Institute, which hosts seminars to educate business and investment professionals. It provides an agenda for a seminar on collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) given by Jim Finkel, CEO of Dynamic Credit Partners. The agenda includes discussing components of CDOs, developments in the CDO market, current market dynamics, and asset class comparisons.
The document discusses the federal government's bailout programs in response to the financial crisis and economic downturn. It provides an overview of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 which authorized $700 billion for the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) to purchase distressed assets from banks. It also describes the creation of the Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility (TALF) to help restart the credit markets.
The document compares and analyzes the similarities and differences between the 1980s savings and loan crisis and the 2008 subprime mortgage crisis. It provides background on what triggered each crisis, statistics on their costs and impacts, timelines of key events, comparisons of the underlying causes, and summaries of the government actions taken in response to each crisis.
Steve Dow, partner at Sevin Rosin Funds in Dallas, told the New York Times in 2006 that “the VC model is broken.” A recent survey from executive search firm Polachi Inc. polled more than 100 venture capital executives, 70% of which were partners or managing partners. It found that a majority, 53% of respondents, indicated the venture capital industry is “broken.” With a less than receptive IPO market and the credit markets tightening down on M&A activities, VCs are finding few exits for their existing investments. PE shops are faced with refinancing over $300 billion of LBO debt over the next two years. Endowments and pension funds that serve as the limited partners firms are reassessing their investment in the entire asset class and are hamstrung by the denominator effect. Will this funding gap affect the US’ ability to develop new technologies and create new jobs? Many ask, “Why aren’t there more Googles” and “What will be the next big thing?” Personal computers were the catalyst in the 1980s, the internet was the catalyst in the 1990s and social networking has been a catalyst in recent years, but what will be the growth driver in the next decade? With this background, this presentation will discuss the golden years of private equity, the current environment and what the future holds for this industry and entrepreneurial activity.
The document discusses the 2008 financial crisis and government bailouts. It provides background on how risky mortgage lending practices led to the crisis. It describes major events like the failures of Lehman Brothers, AIG receiving an $85 billion bailout from the federal government, and the $700 billion Troubled Asset Relief Program bailout. It considers risks of the government stepping in or not stepping in during a financial crisis and notes the economy may continue to struggle even after bailouts.
1. The appellants appealed three orders from a circuit court case involving allegations of a multi-million dollar Ponzi scheme.
2. The circuit court granted motions to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction filed by the three appellees.
3. The appellants argue that Maryland law does not support the circuit court's findings and they request the court of special appeals reverse the dismissals.
The document discusses various topics related to EB-5 investments and real estate development projects seeking EB-5 funding. Specifically, it mentions that the popular EB-5 senior housing investment program faces an uncertain future as Congress' deadline approaches. It also summarizes several legal cases filed by the SEC against individuals and companies for alleged fraud in soliciting EB-5 investors. In addition, it provides an update on the Walton Westphalia development project in Maryland.
The document discusses the global financial crisis that began in 2007 and its causes and consequences. It notes that the crisis originated from risky subprime mortgages in the US that led to a liquidity crisis when housing prices declined. This caused financial institutions like Lehman Brothers to collapse. The crisis had widespread consequences like stock market declines, rising unemployment, and housing market downturns. Governments implemented stimulus programs to combat the crisis and adopted new financial regulations to prevent future crises.

This article highlights 15 top-performing mutual funds over the past 5 years. It begins by discussing the difficult market environment for funds since 2005, with the average annual return just 2% compared to inflation. However, some funds delivered much better returns. The top-performing fund highlighted is the Yacktman fund, which returned 40% over 5 years compared to just 4,000% for a market index fund. The article then examines the BlackRock Global Allocation fund in more detail as the top global fund. It achieved an average annual return of 7.7% over 15 years by taking advantage of market downturns to buy stocks and bonds at lower prices. The fund aims to limit risk by diversifying across
Goldman Sachs is a major investment bank that profited greatly during the financial crisis by shorting the subprime mortgage market while still selling mortgage-backed securities to clients. It faces numerous lawsuits alleging it misled investors and profited from the financial products it created failing. While top executives claim they did not bet against clients, internal emails suggest they were aware of the risks in the products they sold. The bank continues to face legal and reputational challenges over its role in the crisis.
This document is a complaint filed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission against Daniel Spitzer and various entities he controls alleging an ongoing $105 million Ponzi scheme. The SEC alleges that since 2004, Spitzer raised money from investors representing the funds would be invested in profitable foreign currency trading and investment funds, but instead used over $71 million of new investments to make Ponzi payments to other investors. The SEC is seeking to halt the scheme and freeze remaining assets to prevent further harm to investors.
