Who we work with

Most of our borrowers are founders and insiders at small and mid-cap public companies. Much of their net worth is in one stock, and selling it is costly, slow or sends the wrong signal.

Eligible listingsTSX, TSX Venture, CSE, and major exchanges in Europe and Asia.

LiquidityThe stock should trade at least US$100,000 per day.

Common usesDiversifying a concentrated position, real estate, funding a new venture, or covering a tax liability, all without selling shares.
