The Laws That Apply To Finders Brenda Hamilton Submitted 2014-01-05 18:25:01 Companies seeking capital are frequently approached by finders who offer to locate investors in exchange for a fee. This is particularly true in going public transactions. Most finders are not registered as broker-dealers with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Similarly, compensation, which is a percentage of the amount of securities sold is also likely to be viewed as unregistered broker-dealer activity.

i. Actively soliciting potential investors;
ii. Advising potential Investors about the merits of an investment;
iii. Participating in the negotiations;
