"Smart" securities provide innovative ways to connect investment ideas with capital needs. We began this journey looking to turn energy projects on existing structures into a viable investment opportunity for individuals and institutions. We watched the industry grow, step by step, until the mechanisms were in place to create securities out of things like art, resorts, and yes, energy projects.
Blockchain technology not only provides an immediate, effective and efficient solution to combat global challenges, but it improves our process for allocating resources. Individuals and institutions alike, get to access new, non-correlated, and liquid investment assets that involve the things they care about the most. It could be a sports team, energy savings, or the Manhattan skyline, but their investment monies can now go to not just their investment or asset management objects more cheaply and easily, but to their passions as well.
In an environment where so many new things will be securitized, creativity will be rewarded and economic value will be unlocked. Fractional ownership, low cost, and liquidity will allow many investors to participate in offerings that would have normally been cost-prohibitive or unpractical to own.
Blockchain technology will be a revolutionary influence on the global financial markets, not just by providing a better means of transaction and ownership, but by connecting new investment capital with entrepreneurs and "impact" investments.
We are blessed with the network of clients, partners, and friends that we have developed over our careers. We look forward to adding value to those relationships and creating new ones as we continue to learn about just how transformative these new technologies can be to our financial system. As the industry continues to grow we will begin to see what the true benefits are of an open, competitive global marketplace.
It is a win for everyone. Investors will profit, clients will save, new ideas will be capitalized and markets will become more efficient.
"Everybody Wins" and society as a whole will benefit.
