How to Move FSE Listings to the London Stock Exchange
Several Frankfurt Listings of Canadian, UK, Chinese, German, Swiss, Australian, and other foreign markets joined the Frankfurt Open Market and 2nd Quotation Board with the purpose of eventually fast track listing onto the London Stock Exchange.
Now is the time with the change in the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, to move your firm over to the London Stock Exchange. The London Stock Exchange has already begun clearing more shares than the Frankfurt Open Market which is on its way to being dismantled or has been suggested to close on companies without a prospectus ready.
Instability of the Frankfurt Listings has lead many firms to focus on the London Stock Exchange through Broker Dealers, such as IFXBG Limited. If you are a Frankfurt Listing looking to move from the FSE Listings to London Stock Exchange Listings, you should contact info@ifxbg.com today.
FSE Listings: Listing on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange is still possible for your firm!
Changes to recent rules for Frankfurt Stock Exchange Listings:
Your firm that desires an FSE Listing needs to have a market capitalization of 750,000 euro which means the company has shares that have been issued to that amount based on assets and value paid for those shares
To qualify for FSE Listings your firm needs to have a 1 euro share price
If your firm didn’t apply for acceptance into the Frankfurt Entry Standard by July 1st 2012, then a prospectus will need to be written and prepared. With a prospectus, audited financials and a third party valuation of asset value is required.
If you are interested in listing on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange Entry Standard contact info@fselistings.com.
In addition, FSE Listings Inc has extensive investor relations programs available to currently listed firms trying to increase their trading volume and awareness.
An alternative to listing on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange is listing on the London Standard Market, which ranges from 300-350k GBP. Some firms charge as low as 200k GBP for listing on the LSE.
If the London Stock Exchange and Frankfurt Stock Exchange Listings are too cost prohibitive for listing, one could try using the Broker Dealer IFXBG Limited, who is a broker dealer that lists firms on the London Exchange “GXG Markets” which is one of the only true OTC markets within the UK.
If you are looking to go public or upgrade to a higher standard board, here are the contacts you need to know:

FSE Listings Inc. has the ability to buy and sell shells through listed broker dealers. I advise that if you cannot move your company up to another bigger board market, you should either work with us to move your company to the Entry Standard and raise capital for you or move your firm onto another exchange with us, that is still valid for us to raise capital for you. At the worst case, we can sell your firm as a shell and build a new listing for you.

We can dual list firms from Canada, the UK, Australia, and elsewhere onto the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, OTCBB Companies we can dual list into Berlin. Once we have dual listed your existing firm, we can use a valuator to build an extensive report that enables us to build a bond for your firm and raise capital as a AA guaranteed investment. Dual listing of TSX Firms, Dual listing of ASX firms, and Dual listings of AIM or Plus Market firms are easily done onto either exchange in Europe.
Be aware, there is always changing rules in stock exchanges and it often doesn’t get easier. Now is the time for you to list before any other changes occur which could put your company at risk by not qualifying.
If you do not qualify for a listing, and have a great new start-up firm, we will consider venture capital placements upon submission. Venture Capital is available only to private firms we work with, and usually doesn’t exceed $250k-$1 million.
A third party valuation by a European firm, due diligence, business plan, five-year projection, and financials will need to be prepared. If you are lacking in any of the requirements, we are happy to offer our services to complete registered valuations, business plans, prospectus preparation, audits, financials, and projections.

Globally there are exemptions for raising capital for a myriad of monikers to describe sophisticated investors. The most common names are qualified investors, accredited investors, professional investors, high net worth investors, and of course sophisticated investors.
What are the benefits of a Sophisticated Investor Database for raising capital as a business (SME)?
- Small businesses can raise any amount of funds from sophisticated investors
- Small businesses do not have to go through the costly prospectus documents required, however, most jurisdictions require firms to report the sophisticated investment
- Sophisticated Investors are often “angel investors” for businesses
- As a firm doing an IPO offering, having a third party verified list of sophisticated investors prequalifies the investor before marketing to them
- Sophisticated investors can receive promotions and marketing exempt of most rules with regard to solicitation
- Sophisticated Investors can invest in funds, Collective Investment Schemes, crowd funding and other such investment concepts without having the cost of being regulated
In most jurisdictions, the certification can occur at the time of the subscription or purchase of the securities, however, it is often “second guessed” by regulators when firms “raising the money” do their own “qualifying” of investors. This can lead to offerings falling foul of the exemption. However, a third party verification system is infallible with this regard and offers a convenient method for Unregulated Collective Investment Schemes, Small Private Offerings, Public Offerings, Funds, and Debt offerings such as bonds and debentures to “pre-qualify” existing databases by working with a third party firm to vet their data and produce unbiased results.
The only firm that privately offers third party verification of investor information and supplies certificates for signing by the investor ishttp://www.sophisticatedinvestorregister.com.
As a service provider to the financial markets one can subscribe to the service to access:
- Weekly new sophisticated investors (limit of 500 per week)
- Data cleaning and qualification of existing databases of shareholders
- Email distribution and SMS alerts to opt-in members
The sophisticated investor register maintains that the certification is always made within “12 months” of the investments, and assists investors in renewing the certificates. The documentation is generally sent to the local jurisdiction for further verification and admission of the investor to “government” databases that further verify the authenticity of the sophisticated investor register.
If you are a company interested in raising capital, you should consider subscribing to the sophisticated investor register today!
A sophisticated investor can mean many different definitions depending on the Country specified. Truly the best way to answer this question is having them go to the online universal database which registers them in their jurisdiction. These individuals generally have the right net worth, the right experience, and or have registered through the sophisticated investor register.
If you are a company looking to verify your investor base as sophisticated investors or are not sure whether you can offer securities to a base of contacts, you should use a universal sophisticated investor , high net worth, accredited investor, qualified investor, professional investor “qualifying tool” such aswww.sophisticatedinvestorregister.com which is free.
Simply:
- Send your potential investors to this website to get their certificate
- Those who qualify and get the certificate, include it in your records and you can send them your promotional materials, subscription agreement, business valuations, and other such offering materials
The register will also work with you directly to make contact, check the regulations of the jurisdiction of your potential investor, and ensure the right document is filled in as a certificate or as part of the “subscription agreement” as a page they will need to agree to.
The Sophisticated Investor Register is unique as it is a free service that works with firms to qualify and register in their Country of Origin or where the offering is made.
This free tool is a form builder which generates a form, a unique ID per subscriber, and a QR ID which logs the necessary information so that you can access in the database the data at a later date.
Start sending your potential investors today towww.sophisticatedinvestorregister.com
WARNING: Those firms that do not qualify their investors as sophisticated who have taken investments as a company for shares or as part of a collective investment scheme of fund without a prospectus filed can face penalties, jail time, and banning from the securities industry. It is not worth your reputation to ignore registering your investors prior to taking their investment. Don’t learn the hard way, contact the register or test the register with a handful of investors to “qualify” how qualified your investor base is today.
Stock Exchange Listings and How To Raise Capital For Your Firm Through Sophisticated Investors!
More than ever before in the history of financial markets a company requires to have transparency, substance, and liquidity. A proper Go Public strategy or money raising process requires building share value to the investor.
The “real economy” is based on logical revenue producing firms, stable businesses and good investments for the common individual. These firms are attractive for Bond offerings to institutional investors and equity offerings to sophisticated investors.
Most people cannot participate in this real economy as they are not qualified, sophisticated, and accredited investors. A perfect example is IPOs such as Facebook, which is offered to a very high-caliber level of investor and not the general public for the most part until post listing. The highest gains for most investors are in IPOs as statistically proven time and time again.
For businesses a major problem for the companies is they are unable to solicit individuals that are not certified as a class of investor that can be contacted for investment opportunities.
One of the solutions for businesses looking for qualified and sophisticated investors is http://www.sophisticatedinvestorregister.com and http://www.qualifiedinvestorregister.com which actively qualifies over 1,000 investors per week adding them to the largest database of sophisticated investors available.
As a firm, your employees have the capacity to contact interested sophisticated investors who have asked to be contacted. To quantify the importance of a database of this kind, 100-150 sophisticated investors who took part in a listing would equal over 18 million euro in capital raised over 6 months.
In addition, companies that are interested in becoming listed in the UK and taking advantage of the sophisticated investor directive, we can take your firm public on an active UK sophisticated investor stock market as a listed firm and you can utilize an active supply of investors to raise capital. Either through public listings on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, Berlin Stock Exchange, Danish GXG UK markets, or Plus Markets, your firm could raise the capital required and successfully IPO or list.
Contact info@fselistings.com today to inquire how you can take advantage of foreign sophisticated investors for your firm today. Whether you are a Canadian firm, Australian firm, US firm, Spanish Firm, or African firm, going public in Europe is the best opportunity for you to gain investment. You may even already be listed on a Stock Exchange, and could still qualify for our program. Please contact us today to see if we can help you.
In addition to sophisticated and qualified investors, we will endeavor to qualify your firm to create bonds and place these bonds with institutional investors. Contact us today for more information. Info@fselistings.com.
The capital markets are definitely unforgiving with changing regulations, changing listing requirements, and changing exemptions but the only unchanged consistency over all for small businesses raising money to go public on a stock exchange is getting “sophisticated investors” interested in your firm.
Every jurisdiction may not have exactly the same name or the same criteria, but what is common is that there is an exemption for investors who qualify. These are sophisticated, accredited, qualified, and high net worth investors.
Within the United Kingdom, there is one FSA regulated database called the Qualified Investor Register, which takes the self-certified documentation and stores this information for regulated and unregulated offerings to refer to as a way to “categorize” the type of investor they solicited. However the database itself is not allowed to be used for solicitation.
In all of our research there has actually only been one database privately held that assists Qualified and Sophisticated Investors. The two websites based on the different terms are http://www.sophisticatedinvestorregister.com and http://www.qualifiedinvestorregister.com.
We highly recommend going to one of these websites and seeing if you qualify. A private database for registering your self-certification will allow for in the future firms like Facebook, or LinkedIn, or other major IPOs to have the right and legal ability to contact you.
Most people miss the high profile IPOs because they are not certified and or recognized reasonably as being “sophisticated” even though they do qualify.
I suggest going and seeing if you qualify today at http://www.sophisticatedinvestorregister.com.
Again, the benefit is access to a pretty exclusive club of investor opportunities that only self-certified sophisticated, accredited, and qualified investors can access.
For companies, the sophisticated investor register opens up the opportunity of being able to contact potential investors under a universal exemption. This exemption immediately can add your profile to fund managers, brokers, and IPO experts who make exclusive offerings, but cannot without certification. As part of the service, you receive a QR Code – Identification system, an official certificate to be signed and faxed back into the register, and free filing of your information with local government databases.
IF YOU HAVEN’T JOINED THE SOPHISTICATED INVESTOR REGISTER THAN YOU WILL NOT KNOW WHAT MAJOR IPO YOU ARE MISSING!
Qualify for major IPOS if you are a US, American, Canadian, Australian, Hong Kong, New Zealand, Chinese, Indian, EU, Latin American, Central American or UK Sophisticated Investor you need to certify today! If you are not sure, qualify and we will get the proper documentation for becoming part of the register!
US Accredited and Sophisticated Investors. In the United States Securities Commission (SEC) definitions of an accredited investor the most common classification that people actually are include a natural person with an annual income of over $200,000 in each of the two most recent years or joint income with a spouse exceeding $300,000 or net worth or joint net worth exceeding $1 million USD excluding the value of primary residence. However, there are definitions for trusts, business directors of the issuer, employee plans, retirement plans, and trusts that also make up this definition. (http://www.sec.gov/answers/accred.htm)
We do encourage small business owners, trusts with assets over $5 million, banks, insurance companies, business development companies and small business investment companies to register as well. The point of registering is to keep record of your ability to participate in offerings you would and could qualify for. This is an invaluable free service by http://www.sophisticatedinvestorregister.com.
Canadian Sophisticated – Accredited Investors. As a Canadian, the terms are pretty general across Canada for Accredited Canadian Investors. In Ontario Canada, this exemption extends to $1 million in financial assets or net worth of $5 million. One of the particular point is of course persons the OSC recognizes as an accredited investor, which again brings us back to certifications inside of a database that has collected your data as a third party to verify and file with local authorities if required or part of a subscription or offering. (http://www.osc.gov.on.ca/en/21943.htm) Most of the Canadian Accredited Investor jurisdictions are similar to that of Ontario with a few small differences in definitions of assets. See if you are qualified as a Canadian Investor.
As a registered accredited, sophisticated, and high net worth investor, you can generally invest as much as you want to as long as you the primary and principal investor are certified.
Australian Sophisticated, Professional Investor. Within the Australia Sophisticated Investor registration process, the caveats are a little stronger with a requirement of an auditor to give proof of net worth of $2.5 million or two consecutive years of $250,000 per annum. Otherwise, it is defined by the investments size of over $500,000. The most common exemption is generally the professional investor in Australia, of which again there is not a reliable database accept for through www.qualifiedinvestorregister.com. Australian Investors should register themselves, companies, and or status to see if they can take part in international IPOs through this exemption.
Hong Kong Sophisticated Professional Investor. Within the Hong Kong sophisticated professional investor definitions, a high net-worth individual has one of the following, a portfolio of not less than HK$ 8millon, corporations or partnerships or trustee companies with portfolios of that size or total assets of HK$40 million, or corporations that solely act as investment holding companies, and owned by a sophisticated professional investor. As a Hong Kong professional I suggest seeing if you qualify today for the Sophisticated Investor Register. (http://www.sophisticatedinvestorregister.com)
UK Sophisticated Investor – Qualified Investor – High Net Worth Investor. As a UK Sophisticated, High Net Worth, Qualified Investor,within the UK definitions of a sophisticated investor, the register is extremely important, especially for Unregulated Collective Investment Schemes where by the company can’t both market and sell to a sophisticated investor that they the fund certified. Having the persons go to a third party first for certification, such as the http://www.sophisticatedinvestorregister.com allows for the promoters of a UCIS to send their investors to register first through the “third party” and return with the certification to invest within the collective investment scheme. Therefore all firms working with UCIS projects should send their investors to the register to ensure they don’t fall foul of Artcile 23 PCIS Order. It is the responsibility of the provider and distributor to send them to this third party register to return to the investment scheme and make a placement.
UK Investors who wish to take advantage of major foreign and local IPOs should consider certifying through a register so that they fully comprehend the risks and benefits. A sophisticated and qualified investor must update their certificate on a 12 month cycle. The Sophisticated Investor Register reminds and keeps informed the register members to ensure this information is kept up to date by the member and they re-certify annually.
The “high net worth” and “sophisticated investor used to be made by a third party and it became apparent that the exemptions were being rarely used due to their being a lack of a registry and cost of the process. This undermined the investors from having the opportunity to take part in IPOs and investments and effected the intention which was to raise funds through private equity from business angels for IPOs and small business. In the UK, a high net worth individual must certify the annual income must is in access of 100,000 GBP, net assets in excess of 250,000 GBP excluding primary residence, insurance, and pension policies. As a sophisticated investor, the potential investor has to certify if they are a member of a network or syndicate of business angels for the last 6 months, has made more than one investment in an unlisted company in the previous two years, has worked in the previous two years in a professional capacity in the private equity sectors or in the provision of finance for small or medium sized companies, or has been in the previous two years a director of a company with an annual turnover of at least 1 million GBP.
