The business objective, position among competition, management, business plan and performance, financial situation will all be carefully evaluated by MMG.

The drafted prospectus will be filed and presented by Mina Mar Group to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). As we already mentioned prospectus is standard part of an IPO process. It ensures that important information regarding the issuing securities are disclosed to potential investors. Preliminary prospectus ("red herring") is the first offering document which contains most of the relevant details is filed with SEC. The SEC will likely return the prospectus within some weeks with comments, requesting further clarification, disclosure or additional information. After the revision of the prospectus based on previous comments it will be approved by the SEC.Final prospectus also know as offering circular contains finalized information including security's price. It means that offering is effective and it can be printed.

We will continuously work with FINRA  until all answers are provided and acceptance of your company is guaranteed.

Following the preparation of prospectus and filing with SEC we acquire the service of stock distribution firms, investor relation firms and other firms that will put in effort  in marketing and selling parts of the offering to interested parties. Our investor relation firm will arrange several meetings with potential analysts and investors. Road show involves presentation of the company in the formal setting to investors and analysts so they can decide whether to invest or not.
