Financial Review

Your investment in a company can make the difference in a founder accumulating the necessary funds to make their vision a reality. It could help them really change the world.

Background Review

Having the ability to invest in a company at an early stage, like before they go public, gives you a high potential return as they grow! This higher potential also has more risk.

Compliance Check

Every portfolio needs some level of diversification. This helps you manage risk. If one sector or investment type reduces in value your want to shield parts of your portfolio.

FFS conducts due diligence on a best efforts basis. Risk disclosures specific for each offering are reviewed by FFS and are presented within the offering memorandum or other offering documents for the issuance. Offering documents and the risks associated with the securities of an issuer contained therein should be reviewed thoroughly by an investor or an investor’s professional advisors before making an investment.
