The $3.7 trillion-dollar Problem
According to McKinsey’s latest Global Private Markets Review*, private markets entered a slower era in 2023, with macroeconomic headwinds, rising financing costs, and an uncertain growth outlook weighing on fundraising, deal activity, and performance.
Executive Vice President Jason Bennick shares insights into how Commonwealth is empowering companies with direct access to the current surplus in U.S. private capital markets.
Is your Business "Capital-Ready"?
Reaching broker-dealer-ready status signifies that a business has attained the highest quality level for investment in the U.S. private capital markets. Higher quality standards increase a business's value opportunity for substantial capitalization.
Our BDR Rating™ system, powered by the Venture Tech Operating System™, is the commercial standard for rating businesses against the broker-dealer readiness investment standard.
Meeting the stringent financial, legal, compliance, and business standards required by licensed broker-dealers to distribute a securities offering through licensed investment banks is essential for substantial capitalization in private and public markets.
Unlocking Capital Potential in Florida
With over 25 years of expertise in assisting startups and early-stage companies, Commonwealth Capital collaborated with the Florida Office of Financial Regulation on Florida Senate Bill 532, known as the "Invest Local Act."
Our industry research and insights contributed to defining "accredited investors" and updating regulations. Senate Bill 532, a bipartisan effort, clarifies regulatory language, revises definitions, reduces filing fees, eliminates issuer-dealer registration requirements, removes the issuer escrow requirement, and exempts private fund advisers from registration.
Discover how these new regulations can help you navigate the regulatory landscape, raise capital, and grow your startup in Florida.
