Set Up an Investment With Midland Today to Raise Capital Faster

WHY IT WORKS

For Investors

Traditional brokerage firms allow individuals to invest in public markets.
Midland allows individuals to invest in private alternatives. These alternatives include hedge funds, private equity, venture capital, start-ups, Crypto funds, real estate syndications, and more.
For many investors, their IRA is their single largest liquid asset and they value the ability to participate in markets they know well.
Tax-sheltered returns can mean better returns for investors over the long term.
Rollover retirement plans from employer-sponsored plans are liquid and typically offer investors a large pool of funds to work with.

WHY IT WORKS

For Investment Managers

If someone likes what you're offering, it is easy for them to invest, regardless of where the money comes from.
IRA's are typically invested for the long-term and withdrawals are rare (only 5%) unless required.
Funds using IRAs have extremely high retention rate, allowing predictable cash flow and stability.
IRA investors are often savvy. This investor can be easy to educate and work with throughout the life of the offering.
When the process of onboarding IRA investors is streamlined, it's the fastest way to raise capital.

There is no cost to the issuer to get an investment on our platform. Our service charges are typically billed to the account holder and therefore there is no cost to the investment issuer for Midland to provide services.

Midland specializes in assisting privately offered investments within the alternatives markets. The IRS requires that all IRAs have a custodian that holds title to investments within the retirement account. Most banks and brokerages offer this service provided that the account holds investments offered on their platform. Many of the larger custodians don’t allow for private investments on their platform.

Midland only offers neutral third-party recordkeeping and custody services. We will not endorse, sell, or market any offering nor will we influence an investor’s ultimate investment decision. You can trust that Midland would never expose or influence your referred investor’s investment decisions.

We make it easy to get your investment set up. Simply submit your offering documents, often a subscription agreement and wire instructions, through our Investment Onboarding Gateway. We aim to have all new investments setup within 24-48 hours.

Midland will be the party in which you send investment returns and updates in value for any IRA investor for as long as they hold the asset within their Midland account.

We do hope that you enjoy working with us and this leads to a long-term referral relationship.

Midland is the expert when it comes to IRA custody. Whenever there is interest from an investor, you can confidently introduce the Midland team. Think of us as your back office when it comes to IRA needs. You can expect that we will promptly and professionally work with your referrals.

Many of our most successful referral relationships utilize our OnePath onboarding process. This process generates a custom application solely for your investors that marries a traditional two-step process into one by including both the application and the subscription agreement. This streamlines the process and saves both the investor and the investment time and effort.

ONBOARD YOUR INVESMENT

I use Midland because of the personal relationship. When I call Midland, I get the same person every time. They know my business, so I don’t have to explain anything.

I do business with Midland because they make it easy. They know our product, they know our clients, they know me. I can send them an email asking if they can change something for a client and they always email me back “no problem.” I can tell (our rep) that a client wants to invest and she gets it going and makes it happen. I don’t have to worry about anything, ever.

Every time I call, I know there’s a familiar voice. You don’t have to repeat your story 10 times or go through a series of hoops to get things done. It’s no hassle.

Working with Midland has been a very positive experience. Unsolicited, we use Midland as our primary custodian. They’re flexible, they’re personal, they seem to be genuinely good people. We catch up with them on the phone or at lunch from time to time. It’s been a positive experience
