Risks Involved
- Startup investments carry a high level of risk. Startups face enormous financial and operational risks. While targeted returns in any investment situation should represent the perceived level of risk, such returns may never be realized and/or may not be sufficient to recompense an Investor or a Fund for risks taken. It is possible and likely that an investor's entire money will be lost. Furthermore, any return on investment is exceedingly unclear in terms of timing
- The success of any investment endeavor is influenced by general economic conditions to some extent. External credit markets, stock markets, and other economic systems on which a Startup or a Fund may rely to fulfill its objectives may be available, unavailable, or inoperable, which can have a severe negative influence on a Startup's or a Fund's operations and profitability.
- Investors in a startup will not have any say in the management, disposition, or other realization of any investment made by the relevant Fund, or in any other aspect of the startup's operations.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to exit?
- Exit: If a lucrative opportunity for selling/disposing off the securities becomes available in the next rounds of funding due to an incoming or existing investor willing to buy out the existing angel investors, the start-up will notify the AIF. Since the equity investment opportunities on Grip's platform are facilitated through an AIF, the Investment Manager of the AIF will make the decision to exit the investment at its sole discretion.
- Resale Market: As of now, start-up investing platforms do not facilitate secondary share sale. Since the investment made by Grip's users is held by them in the form of units of the relevant scheme of the AIF, these units can be transferred to other angel investors prior to an exit by the AIF from the underlying start-up. Similar to most platforms, Grip also does not have a secondary market for the sale of the units. However, we can try facilitating an exit for the selling investor on a reasonable-effort basis after taking the consent of the AIF.
- Private Sale: An investor may sell their fraction/holding (i.e. units of the AIF) to anyone they may know, such as friends or family. The AIF can also facilitate this sale through the secondary transfer of the units held by the selling investor to an incoming investor (identified by the selling investor).
What are the instrument types typically used in fund-raising?
What is the due diligence process?
While no returns are mentioned in asset details, what kind of returns can I expect from the asset class?
Your investment is solely based on your own judgment, knowing the risks involved in this dynamic marketplace. We do not guarantee a return on investment because it is dependent on market conditions and start-up execution.
But as a rule of thumb, Angels all over the globe say that a 3x return over three years is respectable, but a 7x-10x return over three to seven years is a Grand Slam!
What are the risks involved in investing in startup equity?
The following considerations, among others, should be carefully evaluated before investing in a Startup or a Fund:
- Risk Inherent in Startup Investments: Startup investments carry a high level of risk. Startups face enormous financial and operational risks. While targeted returns in any investment situation should represent the perceived level of risk, such returns may never be realized and/or may not be sufficient to recompense an Investor or a Fund for risks taken. It is possible and likely that an investor's entire money will be lost. Furthermore, any return on investment is exceedingly unclear in terms of timing.
- Risk of change in a Startup's plans, markets, and products: The value of an Investor's stake in a Startup may be more vulnerable to variables impacting Startups and the technology industry in general. Because of the changes and advancements in this industry, the startups may need to rethink their business models and make major adjustments to their long-term objectives and business plans. Failure of such Startups to make such changes would have a major negative impact on their business, as well as a material negative impact on the returns on an investor's investment in such a Startup, including the possibility of a full loss of investment.
- Dynamic Economic Conditions: The success of any investment endeavor is influenced by general economic conditions to some extent. External credit markets, stock markets, and other economic systems on which a Startup or a Fund may rely to fulfill its objectives may be available, unavailable, or inoperable, which can have a severe negative influence on a Startup's or a Fund's operations and profitability
- Low Liquidity and no active public market: A majority of an investor's holdings will be private and illiquid. As a result, there will be no public markets for the Investor's assets, whether directly or through a Fund, and no easily available liquidity mechanism for any of the investments at any one moment. Furthermore, a Fund investment is illiquid, not freely transferable, and has a high level of risk. There is no public market for membership interests in a Fund and no public market is expected to emerge. As a result, an Investor will be responsible for the economic risks associated with their investment for the duration of the Fund.
- Absence of Investor Control: Investors in a startup will not have any say in the management, disposition, or other realization of any investment made by the relevant Fund, or in any other aspect of the startup's operations
