FAQ
Direct answers.
The questions asked before every feasibility review, answered simply.
- What exactly do we get?
- Your own Comparto: a dedicated investment product, with its own ISIN, segregated assets and the full operational chain — documentation, administration, Paying Agent, Calculation Agent, audit coordination, investor reporting and lifecycle management.
- Is Comparto a wrapper?
- Yes. A wrapper is the structure that turns an asset into a security with an ISIN, which investors can subscribe to and hold with their own bank. Each Comparto is a wrapper dedicated to a single asset, legally segregated, with no credit or counterparty risk on a third-party issuer.
- How long does it take?
- Two to four weeks from the first conversation to an active ISIN for a Standard Launch. Priority Launch brings this down to 10 business days.
- What does it cost?
- Standard Launch starts from EUR 30,000, Priority Launch starts from EUR 50,000. Annual administration runs EUR 8,000–12,000 per year. These amounts are indicative and confirmed by quote.
- Which assets are eligible?
- Private debt, real estate, infrastructure, receivables, trade finance, fund units, private equity and managed strategies. An asset that produces identifiable cash flows or carries measurable value can be a candidate.
- What happens if my transaction is not eligible?
- We tell you early and explain why. The feasibility review exists precisely to give a clear yes or no before any documentation cost is incurred.
- Who can invest?
- Professional, qualified and institutional investors. Every transaction and every investor category is reviewed in advance for the relevant jurisdictions.
- Where is the product issued, and who can hold it?
- Issuance takes place in Luxembourg. Because the security carries a standard ISIN and settles through standard channels, investors across Europe can hold it at their own bank.
- Does the transaction appear on my balance sheet?
- Investors hold securities issued by a dedicated Comparto, not a claim on your company. The exposure sits in the Comparto. Final accounting treatment always depends on your accounting framework and your auditor.
- Can one transaction affect another?
- No. Each Comparto holds its own assets, cash, liabilities and investors. Nothing flows between Compartos.
- Can I launch more than one?
- Yes. A first Comparto often becomes a recurring issuance programme: each new transaction gets a new Comparto within weeks, on infrastructure that is already in place.
