What is a Prospectus for Public or Private Offerings?

Offering documents vary from the type of capital raise (such as debt or equity) to whether the prospectus is for a public offering or a private offering.   Essentially an “offering” is what a company “offers” to investors for a capital infusion.  An offering document is therefore the primary literature an investor will read to make an educated decision whether to invest or not.  The most common type of offering document, referenced worldwide across business cultures is the “prospectus”.  The prospectus is the single most vital offering document – whether for private or public offerings – that an entrepreneur must put together.  A prospectus entails the most important information of the company, including the type of stock or bonds offered, the payout, the management team, the market, the financials and of course the subscription agreement or booklet.  There are many features of a prospectus but the document itself can be defined as a legal document that explains what the investor will receive from the company for his or her investment.

Public & Private Prospectus

For a company to get its securities listed on a stock exchange they must issue a prospectus.  The stock exchange will view the prospectus and decide whether it meets their eligibility requirements for listing.

In a private placement, a prospectus would be given to an investor.  While there are no strict rules regarding format and content, they do have to follow state and federal securities laws, no matter the country.  But in a private offering a prospectus, like a private placement memorandum or offering memorandum document, will outline the company’s plans and what an investor is offered for their capital.

Who Writes Prospectuses?

Basically anyone seeking to raise capital should issue a prospectus.  The document itself is used for equity and debt issuance.  For instance, a company selling stock, such as common shares, will issue a prospectus detailing the price of the stock, the terms of the stock (such as voting rights, redemption, etc.).  A company that issues debt, such as a note, bond, or convertible bond, will also outline the terms, although the prospectus will be strikingly different in language and tone than a stock offering.

In additional to the most well-known debt and equity issuance, funds of all kinds, both onshore and offshore funds, hedge funds, mutual funds, special purpose vehicles, UCITS and many others will write a prospectus for their own offering.

IPOs and Underwriters

Nearly all companies that get listed on a public stock exchange utilize an underwriter or a broker dealer from a brokerage house to sell the securities to other parties.  The prospectus is the main document used by lead managers and broker firms to sell the securities.
