Can my Company Qualify to be an Accredited Investor?
Companies can be considered Accredited Investors as long as all Directors are Accredited as well or the Company meets a net worth test.
A corporation or partnership will qualify as an accredited investor if all the beneficial owners, partners, and shareholders (except voting securities required by law to be owned by directors) qualify as accredited investors. For example, if a person has a wholly-owned (100%) holding company, the company itself may not qualify, but the owner may meet either the income or net worth test. This would allow the client to invest through the company, regardless if the company itself qualifies.
A corporation, partnership, or other legal entity that has net assets of at least $5 million, as shown on its most recently prepared financial statements, will qualify as an accredited investor on the same basis as the individual/spouse net worth test.
