What is the difference between accredited investors and qualified purchasers?

While both accredited investors and qualified purchasers are eligible for certain private funds, the difference between private funds available to either accredited investors or qualified purchasers or only qualified purchasers will be if the private fund decides to include 100 or more investors.

What is a qualified purchaser?

Qualified purchasers are a subset of accredited investors with an even higher threshold for investable assets. While the two groups have many overlapping investment opportunities, there are a few that are only available to qualified purchasers. Some of these include:

Who is considered a qualified purchaser by the SEC?

To be considered as a qualified purchaser by the SEC, at least one of these criteria must be met: An individual investor or a family-owned business that holds at least $5 million in investments. If a family-owned business, the company cannot have been formed for the sole purpose of purchasing a specific fund or other unregulated investment.

Risk warning: Digital asset trading is an emerging industry with bright prospects, but it also comes with huge risks as it is a new market. The risk is especially high in leveraged trading since leverage magnifies profits and amplifies risks at the same time. Please make sure you have a thorough understanding of the industry, the leveraged trading models, and the rules of trading before opening a position. Additionally, we strongly recommend that you identify your risk tolerance and only accept the risks you are willing to take. All trading involves risks, so you must be cautious when entering the market.
