Of course. A business plan describes the new endeavour and explains its purpose and target market, It outlines market analysis, organizational and managerial structure, products and services and the marketing strategies for branding.
6.Do you have a shorter version
Yes, the executive summary, or short summary is a nutshell version.
7.Can I raise money based upon a business plan.
We would advise you to prepare a private offering memorandum. This is a legal document written by lawyers, which covers the main parts of a business plan. This is facts disclosed to investors through a lawyer.
8.So I use this to raise money
You can raise as much as your project requires, but this route is best suited when you need to raise at least USD 10 million.
9.Why should I not use banks and venture capitalists?
There are many alternative options, such as obtaining a loan from a bank or giving up equity to venture capitalists in return for finance.
10.In what country will I raise the money
We raise money through the United States market and specialise in this system.
11. Do I need to be a US based company and if so can you incorporate my company in the United States
Yes, this is the simple answer.
12. Why should I use the United States
Because of Liquidity and availability of capital in the US market. In simple terms this means you are much more likely to raise your money.
13. What is the mechanism by which the company becomes a US company
Through a stock SWAP
14. What are the main ways of raising financing
Through a Private Offering or an Initial Public Offering
15. Can I do a private offering and not an IPO
Yes, it is possible to raise money through just a private offering. A private offering is the process by which the company/ issuer issues securities for distribution in the private markets.
16. What are the questions that an investor usually asks
They will ask questions such as: how much do You need in total for Your project ? How do I recover my investment ?How long until I recovery investment ? What is my Guarantee? What are the risks ? Have You done it before ? What are the critical success factors ? What is in it for me ? How much profit can I make ?
17. When do we raise the money for a private offering
It depends. Investors may not invest. Large investment funds could invest in one day, but generally if they do this it is because they are protected by a strong due diligence process. The process typically takes six months to one year, but this can be affected by conditions.
18. Can anyone invest in a private offering
No, this is subject to legal regulation whereby the investor must be an accredited or, in other words, financially sophisticated or a financial professional.
19. How do I know if my company is ready for an IPO
You will be able to go public in the United States, with less stringent requirements for profitability than in Europe. The company should preferably be profitable or at least cash flow positive and have two years audited balance sheet.
20. Great and how do I make money from an IPO
The money that you make from an IPO arises from differences in valuation between the private and public market.
21. What do investors have to know about financing
The public market values the anticipation and to invest the investor needs to know that opportunity exists. In other words, he must be able to evaluate the gain/risk ratio.
22. Is there another way to go public apart from an IPO
Yes, either through a merger or reverse merger or through securities market forces.
23. Can you help me understanding the basic process of financing. What do I have to give up.
There are two main forms of financing. In the debt you will owe a sum of money to the investor which is the amount you have to obtain in addition to interest. With capital or equity, the investor will own shares in your company.
24. So with equity, will my shares be diluted by a new round.
Equity dilution involves stock or share dilution. This can result from : A primary market offering or an IPO, Employees exercising their stock options or Investors converting bonds into stocks.
25. Ok, so back to an IPO. What steps do I need to take to prepare for an IPO.
The process of an IPO takes shape over many months. Part of this is the due diligence procedure, which is the process of ensuring that the information contained in a file or prospectus is accurate and does not lend itself to a misrepresentation.
26. Can I pay for the IPO through a percentage of the money raised.
Commonly, DHP will require fees to be paid as the risk should be taken by the company and not the law firm.
27. What must I do for the due diligence
You must complete a due diligence plan, listing the purpose, objectives and issues. After this collect documents containing the alleged evidence and a history of due diligence. During an IPO each question and response must be entered into a due diligence history.
28. How does the roadshow work
The roadshow is a presentation organized by an issuer of securities and the syndicate of brokers and investment banks aiming at presenting to investors an opportunity of investment. The roadshow generates excitement and interest for the IPO.
29. Can I invest before an IPO and if so why would I
There are many reasons. This could be because there is a low price, there is a high yield, a very low break even point, low influence from the stock market, favourable IPO timing or a reliable audit.
30. When a person buys shares do they do so all in one go.
Not necessarily, the value may be different depending upon the timing of purchase. This is called the incremental price method.
31. Do investors require a legal document for the process
Of course. A subscription agreement is required for potential investors. This can be paid either directly to the Issuer or into a trustee account.
32. What is the incremental price method
This is the division of the securities into different phases. The price is calculated based on the risk associated with each phase. Thus there is more of an incentive reflected on a for early investment.
33. How long will the process take
The process of a Private Offering Memorandum will take 6 to 8 months, while an IPO can take two years.
34. Is there a quicker process
Yes, we also have a fast IPO service.
35. How are the securities distributed
A private offering is distributed through a private network connected to the firm DHP. A IPO takes place only through syndication.
36. What securities markets services can you help with
IPOs, bonds, and loans.
37.What are the questions that an investor usually asks
They will ask questions such as: how much do You need in total for Your project ? How do I recover my investment ?How long until I recovery investment ? What is my Guarantee? What are the risks ? Have You done it before ? What are the critical success factors ? What is in it for me ? How much profit can I make ?
38. What are the risks involved in this.
Disadvantages:The disadvantages are the non liquidity of investment, the access to liquidity, the risk of finality and the absence of a valuable history of background.
39. What are typical investment exit strategies
These include buyback of the shares of stock by the issuing company, acquisition of the shares of stock by a third-party, merger or reverse merger of the issuing company, exchange of the shares of common stock of the issuing company against those of a publicly listed company and Initial Public Offering (I.P.O.) of the shares of stock.

A nossa Cultura
As nossas Convicções
Somos juristas em Direito Financeiro Internacional porque acreditamos que a litigância representa, desde logo, um fracasso. Não acreditamos em soluções que emanam dos tribunais.
A nossa equipa de juristas tem visão empresarial e tende a evitar a litigância tanto quanto possível.
Acreditamos firmemente que enriquecer com o infortúnio e conflito de outras pessoas não é um estilo de vida harmonioso.
Esta atitude positiva permite-nos ser credíveis em relação aos nossos clientes em assuntos importantes, uma vez que estes estão cientes de que os seus representantes não reunem inimigos de litígios passados sem qualquer relação com aqueles.
Acreditamos que o o advogado moderno deve unir forças com outros profissionais e competências, como sendo relacionadas com as finanças, marketing & comunicação.
Enquanto Juristas em Direito Financeiro Internacional, a nossa prática encontra-se num polo oposto à dos advogados.
We are builders making money on our clients' achievements and successes not on their woes and failures.
De uma forma geral, não nos envolvemos em litigância.
Não comparecemos em tribunal, a não ser em representação das empresas que administramos ou em favor de causas pro bono.
