Frequently Asked Questions
What should I know before my first wholesale investment?
Understand you're investing without retail investor protections. Read the Product Disclosure Statement thoroughly, understand the fee structure, liquidity terms, and risk factors. Consider starting with a smaller allocation to learn before committing more capital.
How do I verify I'm an eligible wholesale investor?
You qualify if you have: $1M+ net assets, $200K+ annual income for 2+ years, or are investing $750K+ in a single transaction. A qualified accountant or lawyer must certify your status for most funds.
How do I decide on an allocation?
Allocation decisions depend on your individual circumstances, investment objectives, risk tolerance, and time horizon. Wholesale investments carry different risks than traditional investments. We strongly recommend consulting a licensed financial advisor before making investment decisions.
