Investment Pools Mechanics

After an investor purchases fractionalized ownership over a business or asset in an investment pool the individual will be issued a certificate of investment in the form of an NFT. Please note, the owner's wallet address must be KYC’d on Acquire.Fi to receive any dividends. The company may choose to issue dividend payments or loan payments for their raise.

1. Equity Ownership

Represented by an NFT with investment details metadata

2. Ownership sizes

Full Ownership - Represented by a Certificate of Ownership NFT

Fractionalized Ownership - Represented by an NFT with an Allocation amount + % of dividend/Loan to expect from gross profit share.

Due Diligence

Acquire.Fi takes no responsibility for the due diligence process. The full responsibility rests with the buyer.

While Acquire.Fi does vet companies before listing them on our platform, the full legal responsibility for due diligence is in the hands of the buyer. Some things to carefully review include:

- Key legal business documentation
- Payment terms and details
- Contracts – for the sale of the business, existing agreements between the business and staff and suppliers, and partner agreements
- Records – income, profit & loss statements, and tax returns
- Company expenses – bank loans, utility accounts, lease agreements
- Business operations – intellectual property, stock, tools, equipment etc

Due diligence involves identifying any potential risks that the purchase of the business may pose to you and ways to manage them. Completing due diligence can help you make informed decisions about the business purchase, the right price to pay, and the best way to manage the business.

Risks

While M&A can lead to amazing growth opportunities, it can also come with substantial risks. These risks include but are not limited to:

1. Lack of Due Diligence

Due diligence is critical to preparing for M&A transactions. When purchasing preexisting businesses, it’s the seller who holds much of the information. Without a thorough information-seeking process, you could get caught up in obligations such as litigation issues and complicated tax matters.

2. Overpayment

Overpayment is a common pitfall of mergers and acquisitions. If there is external pressure this could lead to you overpaying to simply push the deal through, rather than work out an arrangement that creates value while avoiding additional costs.

3. Miscalculating Synergies

It is easy to enter a deal overly optimistic about the impending payoff and underestimate how long synergies take to come to fruition. Consolidating workforces and operational processes takes time. Excess costs can also be accrued if there are unrealistic expectations around when the integration will be complete.

4. Integration Issues

Significant operational and/or cultural integration issues can appear after a merger or acquisition. If a detailed integration plan isn’t in place when a transaction is made, the companies involved may function separately for longer than anticipated, resulting in increased costs. Differences in company culture may also pose a challenge.

Selling Restrictions

In order to comply with the relevant laws & regulations, Acquire.Fi must enforce certain selling restrictions. Companies registered in these jurisdictions will not qualify for listing on Acquire.Fi at this time:
