Risk Disclosure
Review risk before reviewing deals or data rooms.
RoundDock reduces information-screening friction for founders and capital-side clients, but it does not make investment decisions for either side. Listings, data rooms, Q&A, and roadshows are not investment advice, project endorsement, securities offerings, crowdfunding solicitations, or return promises.
Risks capital-side clients must assess independently
Project failure riskStartups may fail to raise, fail to grow, lose cash flow, change teams, miss product goals, or stop operating.
Incomplete information riskPublic summaries and data rooms may still lack audits, original contracts, bank statements, tax evidence, or third-party verification.
Liquidity riskOffline equity, debt, or cooperation arrangements may be hard to exit and may have no trading market.
Valuation riskValuation, raise amount, and transaction structure require professional review; platform display does not mean fair or executable terms.
Compliance riskFundraising, advertising, data, tax, foreign exchange, and investor-qualification rules differ by region.
Settlement riskBefore any real payment, confirm the receiving entity, contract, invoice, escrow route, and dispute process.
Verification checklist before data-room access or roadshows
Capital-side clientConfirm identity type, ticket range, risk tolerance, investment experience, regional limits, and whether counsel or accountants should join.
FounderPrepare the deck, financial screenshots, contracts, customer evidence, cap table, use of funds, risk disclosure, and public/private boundaries.
RoundDockHandles information cleanup, data-room tiers, project Q&A, roadshow coordination, and service-fee invoices; not custody or return promises.
Professional advisorsCounsel, accountants, tax advisors, auditors, banks, or licensed providers should handle formal documents, settlement, and disputes.
One-sentence boundary
Treat RoundDock as a screening, materials, Q&A, and roadshow routing desk between founders and capital-side clients; do not treat it as a crowdfunding platform, investment adviser, securities issuer, fund custodian, or return promisor.
