Opportunities in Unlisted Equities & the Pre-IPO space!
The unlisted equities market offers a unique opportunity to invest in early-stage companies at valuations well below their long-term potential. This allows investors to access high-growth businesses before they go public, with the potential for significant rewards over time.
Although unlisted equities can enhance a portfolio, they require a long-term view and careful consideration due to their unique risks and liquidity challenges. For those willing to invest early and spot innovation, this market provides opportunities not found in public markets.
Potential to unlock significant value:
Some Unlisted companies can offer an opportunity to participate at a significant discount to their potential long-term value.

Exclusive Access to High-Potential Businesses:
New-age companies, challengers and disruptors would always first appear in the unlisted space and if you have an eye for a business with great future potential, the unlisted equities space can offer access to such exclusive financial opportunities that are not available in the public markets. These high-potential private market opportunities are typically reserved for institutional or accredited UHNI/HNI investors and should be availed only through trustworthy platforms when considering investing a large ticket size.
Long-Term Horizon:
Unlisted equities often appeal to investors with a longer-term investment horizon. These investments can provide substantial returns over time as companies with sound businesses grow and mature, aligning with long-term financial goals and investment strategies.
Not without risk:
Since Unlisted Shares are not traded on an exchange, they are fairly illiquid and best suited for those prepared to hold them for a few years or until the IPO. The offered/ traded price of unlisted securities in the secondary market can be dependent on a variety of factors across demand / supply / market sentiment. One must remember that the unlisted secondary market stock price can at time also end up being higher than the future Initial Public Offer / offer for sale/ primary issuance price and investors must have the appetite to bear such risks.
