WHERE WALL STREET LEGENDS & TODAY'S FINTECH PIONEERS COME TOGETHER TO DEMOCRATIZE INVESTING!
 
Today a nation stands on the precipice of its next frontier in finance – one that is aimed at instilling a culture of FINancial FAIRness.

As opposed to relying on large financial institutions and government entities for capital, emerging businesses have begun turning directly to individual investors to fulfill their financing needs. Shifting trends in mass communications, advancements in technology and regulatory overhauls have now made it possible to raise large sums of money by pooling it from the masses. This new “crowdfinance” constitution is not only resolving inefficiencies and inequality in conventional market structure, it is empowering a new generation of retail products and trading platforms that are essentially reuniting the “people’s capital” with growth, yield and innovation.

Online marketplaces are presently revolutionizing the way people invest, and making it easier for investors to obtain the yield typically swallowed by banking establishments as well as to access the deal flow previously only attainable through brokerage relationships. The SEC’s recent promulgation of Reg A+ coupled with a sound venture exchange framework is leading us toward a more level IPO playing field for both smaller issuers and investors. Instead of serving as an exit strategy for the financially privileged, through Reg A+, the investing public will once again be able to partake in the appreciation of coveted pre-IPO growth stocks. New micro-investing apps are now emerging to help even minute sums of capital invest in institutional-grade products via retirement vehicles – ultimately helping convert a nation of spenders into a nation of savers.

FinFair is where next-generation financial technologies and retail investment products are introduced to the marketplace & where today’s pioneers can benefit from the wisdom of true Wall Street icons.
