In the first part of the article we mentioned prospectus. To be sure that all information in the prospectus are true and pertinent it is necessary to do due diligence. It will be performed by your accountants and our experts at Mina Mar Group. The business objective, position among competition, management, business plan and performance, financial situation will all be carefully evaluated by MMG. The review process also involves getting information about the customers, vendors and industry sector of the company. As we get more information we will make changes in the prospectus and fill in missing information.

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.

Mina Mar Group trough collaboration with our stock transfer agent will work for submission of form 15©2-11 (the basics of  15C2-11 application is intended to ensure that market maker has adequate information and has completed adequate due diligence on an issuer before it quotes its securities)  so it will comply with Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). 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.

OTC stocks more difficult to trade and deposit

  Mina Mar Group helps micro-cap companies structure their growth. Micro-capitalized companies are those with less than $50,000,000 in equity, sometimes under $1,000,000. Restructuring involves raising money (both debt and stock), and planning how they will eventually harvest that wealth. If you’re a founder or investor, the secret to harvesting your equity is to possess assets with a developed market for their sale; up until recently, that market was the public market. Now, Over-The-Counter Securities (“OTC Securities”) don’t serve that purpose since, unless you’re a tech unicorn doing an IPO, there are essentially no ways to sell the shares you’ve invested in. OTC securities – how they were deposited five years ago. Brokerages all around the country have tightened compliance over the past five years to the point where no one may deposit share certificates into their brokerage accounts, even if they can prove that they paid for them.

How important marketing is for Regulation A?

  Regulation A+ represents the lately enacted SEC rule that amends and expands the rarely utilized Regulation A offering exemption. Regulation A+ might be viewed as an alternative to a small registered IPO and also, as a substitute or addition to other securities offering procedures that are not subject to registration under the Securities Act.  Although Regulation A+ is still quite new, it is swiftly establishing a name as the perfect spot for so many American businesses looking for capital. Reg A+, which is supported by the SEC, actually permits non-SEC reporting corporations to raise capital from public investors while also allowing (or even more motivating) the issuer to publicize their offering openly.  The opportunity to publicly market to investors has benefited greatly for numerous corporations.  This method is intended to reduce regulatory constraints by allowing companies who wouldn’t have contemplated pursuing total IPOs to get the type of financing necess...
