Create an InvestorSubscription to provide Monark the information required to facilitate an investment on the primary issuance of a PreIPOCompanySPV. *Please Note: This API call constitutes a binding legal commitment on behalf of the investor. Please ensure that all prerequisites, signatures, and disclosures have been satisfied and that sufficient investor funds are available for the transaction prior to creating a Subscription. Alternative investments are non margin-able securities. As such, they cannot be purchased on margin, and investors must use their own funds to buy these assets.
Subscriptions can be created on a 24/7 basis. There are no "trading hours" associated with creating subscriptions.
Logic to Create Subscriptions
When creating Subscriptions, there are a few requirements that must be met:
- The
amountReservedDollarsmust be larger than theminCommitmentAmountin the associated SPV, unless theremainingDollarAllocationis smaller than theminCommitmentAmount. If the dollar amount remaining in the SPV is less than the minimum commitment amount, the last investor must take all remaining dollars. In other words, if theremainingDollarAllocationis smaller than theminCommitmentAmount, then theamountReservedDollarsin the last investor's Subscription must be equal to theremainingDollarAllocationin the SPV. - The
amountReservedDollarsmust be a decimal up to two decimals. Monark supports fractional shares, and we calculate the fractional number of shares allocated to each subscription, up to 9 decimal places. - The
amountReservedDollarsof the Subscription must be less than or equal to theremainingDollarAllocationin the associated SPV. - Investors can only have one
PendingorProcessingSubscription at a time, per SPV. If an investor tries to create a Subscription while they have an openPendingorProcessingSubscription in that SPV, an error will be returned. If an Investor tries to create a Subscription while they have one or multipleRejectedSubscriptions, the Subscription will be processed normally. - The SPV associated with the Subscription must be in
PRIMARY_FUNDRAISE. - The SPV must be approved, which can be done through the Monark Alts Desk or via API, using the
/primary/v1/pre-ipo-company-spv-partner-approval/spv/{spvId}/approveendpoint.
The system will reject any Subscription that is submitted if all of the above criteria are not met.
Frontend Suggestion
When creating the frontend experience that will enable investors to submit subscriptions, Monark suggests collecting from the user the dollar amount of their subscription, up to two decimal places. Partners should then display to the user an estimate of the number of shares that they will receive, which can be calculated by taking the dollar amount input by the user and dividing it by the allInPricePerShare of the associated SPV.
Here's a samplevideo of what this might look like in the frontend. Note the dynamic "shares to receive" field that continuously updates as the user changes their intended investment amount.
Completing Subscription Actions
**After creating a Subscription, the investor must complete a series of Subscription Actions in order for their subscription status to be marked asCOMPLETE - at which point they will be accepted into the SPV. Subscription Actions can be executed via the Complete Subscription Actions, or by signing documents through the Document Signature endpoint.
