Keeping it Simple: PEMI® Safety through Simplicity™

In accordance with the PEMI® Safety through Simplicity™ Investing Principle, in Canada and other countries, investing in non-bank, non-institutional, non-syndicated, non-regulated or regulatory exempt, free trading securities and related financial instruments; also known as Peer-to-Peer (P2P)/Private/Crypto/Secret/Shadow securities and related financial instruments secured by real estate (private equity mortgage transactions (PEM®)) is considered by financial regulators as being comparatively simple and low risk. It is for this reason PEM® designated transactions are not subject to same level of regulatory scrutiny and rigorous, higher-level investment disclosure documents, namely prospectus or offering memorandum requirements found in other investor markets, namely, the public capital markets.

In Canada, in the Ontario Securities Commission "A GUIDE FOR INVESTORS" publication (Source 1; Source2); excerpts:

• What are disclosure documents?
  • The OSC requires public companies to file documents such as annual information forms, annual and quarterly financial statements, MD&As, management information circulars, material change reports and prospectuses. They contain information that helps investors assess the company's management, products, services, finances, its future prospects and risks. Together, these documents are referred to as "disclosure documents".
• The fact that a company files documents with the OSC does not make the company immune from fraud or mean it is a "good" investment. You still need to carefully choose your investments and who you deal with.
• Investment Funds & Structured Products
  • If an investment fund wants to distribute securities to the public, it must begin by filing a preliminary prospectus.
• Simplified Prospectus for Conventional Mutual Funds
  • Generally, a conventional mutual fund is an investment fund that offers securities that are redeemable on demand by investors for a proportionate interest of the mutual fund’s net assets. These securities are offered continuously and are not listed on a stock exchange. Conventional mutual funds include most mutual funds offered by banks and mutual fund companies.
  • In order to sell securities to the public, National Instrument 81-101 Mutual Fund Prospectus Disclosure (NI 81-101) requires a conventional mutual fund to prepare and file:
    • a simplified prospectus,
    • an annual information form (AIF), and
    • a Fund Facts document for every class or series of a mutual fund.

If you have read a prospectus or offering memorandum with your lawyer or capital markets investment advisor, you will note that investments into opportunities that warrant a higher level disclosure document take away your control as an investor and the yields for such investments are subject to a comparatively greater degree of risk than an equivalent dollar invested in a PEM® transaction. See Risk Section of the PEMI® website.
