A lawyer and co-founder at Fund Finance Partners in Chicago, Illinois, Attorney Zac Barnett holds over 20 years of experience in fund financing products and fund sponsoring. His clients range from investment banks private equity funds to hedge funds. Part of Attorney Zac Barnett's job description includes lender comparisons, fund aftercare services, and portfolio exit strategies.
Studies indicate that despite conducting due diligence, opportunity evaluation, and flawless execution, about a third of portfolio companies fail. As an investor, you must have a strong exit strategy to minimize losses and gain as much as possible from the exit.
An initial public offering (IPO) offers the easiest method to access higher company valuation, especially for high-demand industries. However, expect steep transactional costs and contract-related penalties that may affect your returns on the downside.
Investors should also seek a strategic buyer, often an investor or firm interested in the company's trade secrets, proprietary product or service, or a merger for better market traction and reach. This option offers a faster cash release compared to the IPO, with an added advantage of higher returns based on acquisition urgency.
Lastly, consider a secondary buyout. The portfolio company sale happens between two private equity firms in this instance. The buyer often has more financial muscle to accommodate the plateaued finances and fund growth or diversification.

Crowdfunding from the Investor's Perspective (Series: Crowdfunding 2020) Financial Poise
This webinar focuses on the opportunities that crowdfunding makes available to the investor, and how the investor should go about navigating this new world. We begin with a basic overview of the new regulatory regime, the requirements to invest, and the on-boarding process one should expect. We then dive deeper into the market opportunity, including how to access and select investments, and expectations investors should set for themselves and the projects they select. This is not intended to support any specific deal selection, but instead sheds a light upon the basic selection criteria available, the method to go about investing and what to avoid.
In 2013, the ban on general solicitation of accredited investors was lifted, causing the largest change to securities laws in decades. While everyone from startups to hedge funds will enjoy new liberties in investor marketing and outreach campaigns, it’s critical that the new rules are followed to a T, eliminating the chance for exemption rescission.
Investment strategy for mvp development and releasePaul Claxton
Tutorial on Investing I wrote. We're working on our own MVP Release and we also do a lot of work supporting startups. In my experience, there seems to be an lacking of education in the marketplace about VC/Angel/Seed/Investment and what investors look for. VC funding is highly popularized but it is not the only way to fund your business startup e.g. you can go organically or get a traditional loan and there are pros and cons to do each approach. I created this document for others to use as a tutorial or reference point of information, and hopefully help them in their own funding efforts. ***This is for example purposes only and proprietary information has been excluded or changed. ***
Crowdfunding from the Start-Up's Perspective (Series: Crowdfunding)Financial Poise

how to sell pi coins in South Korea profitably.DOT TECH
Yes. You can sell your pi network coins in South Korea or any other country, by finding a verified pi merchant
What is a verified pi merchant?
Since pi network is not launched yet on any exchange, the only way you can sell pi coins is by selling to a verified pi merchant, and this is because pi network is not launched yet on any exchange and no pre-sale or ico offerings Is done on pi.
Since there is no pre-sale, the only way exchanges can get pi is by buying from miners. So a pi merchant facilitates these transactions by acting as a bridge for both transactions.
How can i find a pi vendor/merchant?
Well for those who haven't traded with a pi merchant or who don't already have one. I will leave the telegram id of my personal pi merchant who i trade pi with.
