DirectMarkets' groundbreaking platform is the next evolutionary step in connecting the C-Suite of existing public companies directly with the capital markets. This is accomplished by electronically linking existing public companies with purchasers of securities. The DirectMarkets platform empowers issuers to efficiently sell primary shares directly into the secondary market, providing investors a new source of supply and liquidity, and the ability to accumulate stock positions in a cost-effective manner. Additionally, the DirectMarkets platform enables investors to initiate transactions directly with issuers, redefining the capital-raising paradigm. The result is greater transparency and substantially reduced time and costs associated with capital origination for existing public companies.
