Risk Warning

Private market investments carry substantial risk. Before using MarketGlide, please read this risk warning carefully and consider whether private market investing is appropriate for you.

Capital invested through MarketGlide is at risk.

Past performance is not indicative of future results. MarketGlide opportunities are only suitable for sophisticated and professional investors. You may lose some or all of the capital you invest.

01

Capital at risk

Investments made through MarketGlide are in private markets and are inherently risky. You may lose some or all of the capital you invest. Unlike bank deposits or government bonds, private market investments are not protected by any government compensation scheme. Before committing to any opportunity, you should be satisfied that you can afford to lose the full amount invested.

02

Illiquidity

Private market investments are generally illiquid. There is no secondary market on MarketGlide. Once you have committed capital to an SPV, you should expect to hold that position until the underlying deal reaches a natural exit event — typically 2 to 7 years, sometimes longer. You should only invest capital you do not need access to in the short to medium term.

03

Past performance

Past performance of any deal, SPV, sponsor, or manager referenced on MarketGlide is not indicative of future results. Returns on private market investments are highly variable. Strong historical performance of a strategy or GP does not guarantee future returns on subsequent deals.

04

Suitable investors only

MarketGlide opportunities are only suitable for sophisticated investors, professional investors, and high-net-worth individuals who understand the risks of private market investing and who have sufficient financial resources to absorb potential losses. MarketGlide does not provide investment advice and does not assess suitability on your behalf. You are responsible for ensuring any investment is appropriate for your circumstances.

05

Diversification

Concentrating a significant portion of your wealth in any single deal, asset class, or manager exposes you to concentration risk. Industry guidance generally suggests that illiquid private market investments should not represent more than a limited proportion of an individual's overall portfolio. You should seek independent advice on appropriate diversification before committing capital.

06

Tax considerations

The tax treatment of investments made through MarketGlide depends on your individual circumstances, jurisdiction of tax residence, the legal structure of the specific SPV, and may change in the future. MarketGlide does not provide tax advice. You should consult an independent tax adviser before subscribing to any opportunity.

07

No advice given

Nothing on the MarketGlide platform — including deal teasers, investment memos, data room documents, Academy content, or communications from the MarketGlide team — constitutes investment, legal, or tax advice. All content is provided for information only. You must form your own view on the merits and risks of each opportunity, and seek independent professional advice where appropriate.

08

Currency risk

Many opportunities on MarketGlide are denominated in currencies other than your home currency. Movements in exchange rates between commitment and exit can materially affect your realised returns — positively or negatively. Currency risk is your responsibility unless explicitly hedged at the SPV level and disclosed in the investment memo.

09

Regulatory status

MarketGlide is operated by Ventures Without Borders Limited, a company registered in England and Wales (Company No. 15397290). Deals are structured through regulated SPV vehicles in Luxembourg, Cayman, Delaware, or ADGM as appropriate. Specific regulatory status, regulatory warnings, and jurisdiction-specific disclosures are provided in each individual investment memo.
