EDANZ and the Securities Act (Venture Capital Schemes) Exemption Notice 2008

EDANZ holds a Securities Act (Venture Capital Schemes) Exemption Notice 2008 that effectively lowers the cost of raising capital for SME's, enabling companies meeting certain criteria not to issue a prospectus.

Investors and businesses must be registered. There is no cost to being a registered investor, nor is there any obligation to invest. There is a cost to companies that are accepted.

We recommend companies seeking capital utilise the Escalator Service, www.escalator.co.nz to provide an independent assessment of their investment readiness. Clients accepted onto Escalator deal broking may be assisted through the Exemption Notice compliance by one of four Escalator participant advisory firms, or alternatively advised and assisted to undertake a more effective solution to their capital raising needs.
