Raising Equity Capital

Australia is world-famous for its innovation and entrepreneurial spirit. Ironically though, Australian entrepreneurs have had limited access to early stage investment funds to commercialise technology or grow their companies. Sadly, this has led to some of our best ideas and brightest people heading offshore, taking with them our future economic growth and job opportunities. But thanks to the Australian Small Scale Offerings Board (ASSOB), this is all changing.

Australian entrepreneurs can now use the ASSOB platform to access capital using many of the strategies previously only used by companies listed on a stock exchange. Using the ASSOB system, an unlisted company is now able to raise up to $5 million each year by selling its securities through a simple and affordable process that doesn’t require “bricks and mortar” security, or giving away control of your company to a venture capital fund.

ASSOB also provides investors with a potential exit without waiting for a trade-sale or stock exchange listing. ASSOB delivers its services through its Members and their consultants.

Thoroughly trained in raising investment capital for unlisted companies, Pacific Blue Financial Solutions will facilitate the ASSOB process assisting you with every step – from planning your share capital structure to preparation of your Offer Document and speaking to potential investors on your behalf. Pacific Blue Financial Solutions staff have not only attended the ASSOB accreditation training and passed a written exam but they are also required to attend regular professional development programs.

Provided your business model is sound and backed by good management and planning, Pacific Blue Financial Solutions will assist you to create an investment structure and Offer that is attractive to investors, while at the same time, allowing you to maintain the controlling interest until the company is fully-developed.

Pacific Blue Financial Solutions is an accredited ASSOB Broker who can help you unlock your equity or raise more for expansion.  Talk to us on (02) 9029 4400, or contact us using this form.
