Katie:
What fee do you charge?
Support:
We do not charge fee from direct orders! The connection between the buyer and the seller is absolutely free for network members. In the future, we will consider monetization options for development. This model will be the friendliest for Birel members.

Currently, the list contains offers from brokers. Brokers may charge a fee from the party they represent (not from Birel members). That is, even if you book a broker's offer through Birel, you do not pay a Commission. Since many current positions are available through brokers, we work with the largest of them to bring liquidity to the market. At the same time, we encourage holders and investors to place direct orders on Birel to get net prices. Direct offers are highlighted with a green check mark.
Katie:
What are the legal and compliance aspects of this?
Support:
Birel is a marketplace that connects the buyers with the sellers of private equity. We do not need a brokerage license as we do not charge a brokerage commission and do not conduct the transaction itself.

Please note that we do not provide legal counsel to shareholders or investors – all parties are responsible for making sure they understand the benefits and risks of this asset class and these transactions.
Katie:
How is the deal made?
Support:
- Birel connects the buyer to the seller when her/she receives the closest BID/ASK.

- The parties negotiate the terms of the deal.

- After the terms are accepted by both parties, each party engages its own lawyers for the mandatory due diligence of the process and verification of any restrictions such as ROFR, etc.

- You sign the documents (stock transfer agreement, forward agreement, SPV, etc.) and complete the transaction. Congratulations!

*This is a standard selling scheme. However, the process may differ in each individual transaction.
