Anyone who has ever been involved in raising private capital knows how difficult it can be. There can be thousands of steps to complete and hundreds of participants to engage —all for just one deal. It’s the same offline process that has existed for decades. Until now.

At WealthForge, we are committed to making the complicated, manual process of raising private capital simple. Our vision is to move this offline process to the online world.

With our platform, issuers and intermediaries now have a turnkey solution that enables them to move their private capital raise online. This full-featured platform provides the transparency, analytics, and reporting needed to track every step, from beginning to end.

Moving the process of raising private capital online

Mark, a real estate developer, is raising money for his latest fund and has worked with his lawyer, Kim, for all of his deals.

While Mark has been successful in raising capital in the past, it’s never been easy. He has run into the same problems that everyone experiences while raising private capital.

Many questions arise during the process:

• Have the investors reviewed all of the documents? • Has the investor’s lawyer reviewed everything? Is a

side letter needed? • Do they need anyone else to review the documents? • Did they get the latest version? Are all of the forms

filled out correctly? • Have they transferred funds into the escrow account?• Has the investor passed a background check?• How do I know who I need to contact to keep the

process moving forward?

An example of how the process of raising private capital can be simplified:

There are many moving parts, different people that need to review different things, and there’s very little visibility into the process.

For this fund, Mark is moving the entire process online. His goal is to simplify the process while reducing the costs involved.

Mark now uses a convenient dashboard to see everything that is occurring with the deal. He can log in and see which investors are looking at his deal, he’s notified when they have executed documents, he knows when money moves to escrow, and he can view which investors have been approved and passed background checks.

Kim also gets access to a dashboard that allows her to have visibility into the entire process. She knows which investors will need a side letter, see how quickly the process is moving forward, and can now collaborate more easily with Mark as they complete the capital raise.

With this all being so simple, Mark is now looking forward to his next deal.
