Document background
The Investment Offering Memorandum is a crucial document used when a company seeks to raise capital through private placement or public offering in Germany. It must be prepared in accordance with German financial regulations and EU directives, providing comprehensive disclosure to potential investors. The document typically includes detailed information about the business model, financial statements, risk factors, management team, and investment terms. Under German law, the memorandum must meet specific requirements set forth by BaFin (Federal Financial Supervisory Authority) and comply with the Securities Prospectus Act (WpPG) for public offerings or relevant private placement regulations. This document is essential for both issuers seeking to raise capital and investors conducting due diligence.
