Raising money with offshore stock offerings

By Ron • December 7th, 2008

Businesses always require capital for growth and expansion. Sometimes such capital is raised through means like bank loans that usually involve collateral and some other such requirements. Other people raise capital through other means as well such as selling shares of their company on a publicly traded exchange such as the New York Stock Exchange or the London Stock Exchange. Some shares are sold as OTC or over the counter shares, basically meaning they are not traded over any known exchanges. Most business owners appreciate the benefits of a public stock offering on any exchange worldwide in order to raise funds but not all business owners can partake of this means of raising capital.

The requirements necessary to offer shares for sale on the world’s major exchanges have seen companies resorting to other means to raise capital such as private stock offerings. By offering stock as OTC stock in an offshore jurisdiction, business owners can avoid the financial and bureaucratic red tape and raise money offshore by selling shares of their company to a multitude of worldwide private investors. The cost of raising money through such means is always much less than the cost it would take to raise money in your own country on a public exchange. Some exchanges require that a company must have been in existence for up to 5 years and have a share capital running into hundreds of millions of dollars before they can make such offers.

What a private offshore stock offering guarantees is the chance the raise capital without bending over backwards to accommodate requirements that are meant to keep the small businesses away from benefiting from a huge financial market. In many ways an offshore private stock offering is even much better than offering your company stock for sale in your own country. People who purchase offshore stock offerings are seasoned financial investors from a worldwide angle and not from a local perspective. An offshore offering also gives your business the access to a worldwide financial market at a huge fraction of the costs of the markets in your own particular country.
