Why Now
Ad dollars are volatile. Platform rev-share is capped. CPMs compress while production costs rise. Meanwhile, your audience has buying power and trust. Regulators are also clearer: accredited frameworks exist, listing paths exist, and compliant token models exist. The shift is obvious. Creators are no longer only media. They are distribution-first capital allocators. Done right, you compound brand equity into investable products your community can support. Done wrong, you invite regulatory, reputational, and counterparty risk. NAV Markets builds regulated pathways in the US, EU, and UAE. We design for scrutiny. We structure for scale. We align media, markets, and compliance so your platform can grow beyond ads and merch—into lasting,
Service
Creator Funds
Pool accredited capital from your audience under known exemptions. We set up LP/GP structures and the governance to match.
Frameworks: Reg D 506(c) for US accredited investors; Reg S for non-US. Jurisdiction selection based on investor mix and tax.
Infrastructure: Institutional custody or approved self-custody with controls. Fund administration. NAV calc. Audit and tax.
Disclosure: Quarterly letters, KPI dashboards, and risk reports. Marketing and testimonial rules built into your content workflows.
Outcomes: A compliant fund that can raise on-brand, publish real disclosures, and scale with additional feeders when ready.
Public Listings
Turn a creator brand into a public company with a real capital stack.
Pathways: Business combination with a clean shell, SPAC merger, or direct listing—subject to diligence and exchange rules.
Vendors: Transfer agent, trustee, auditor, IR firm, liquidity providers, and market maker alignment.
Financing: PIPEs, ATMs, convertibles, and structured equity. A playbook for disclosure cadence and investor relations.
Outcomes: Public currency for M&A, broader distribution, and disciplined reporting—without losing the soul of the brand.
Tokenized Products
Bring utility to your ecosystem with compliance at the core.
Design: “Token-last” approach—structure the business and treasury first; only then consider a token.
Mechanics: Treasury linkage, on-chain visibility, redemption or gated utility, and exchange/market-maker coordination.
Controls: KYC/AML where required, transfer restrictions, sanctions screening, and communications policies to avoid “promises.”
Outcomes: A token that fits your model and jurisdictional limits, or a clear decision not to launch one yet.

FAQ
Who can invest?
In the US, generally accredited investors under Reg D 506(c). Non-US may invest under Reg S. EU/UAE options vary. We verify status and restrict offers by jurisdiction.
How do KYC/AML checks work?
We integrate regulated KYC/AML vendors. Sanctions, PEP, and source-of-funds checks apply. Higher risk investors face enhanced due diligence.
Custody or self-custody?
Institutional custody is preferred. Approved self-custody requires multi-sig, policies, insurance options, and auditor-grade controls.
Do we need auditors?
Yes for public paths; strongly recommended for funds and token treasuries. We coordinate Big-Four or tier-one regional firms.
What about market-making and liquidity?
For equities, we align with market makers and liquidity providers under exchange rules. For tokens, we plan compliant liquidity programs and disclosures.
Can global fans participate?
Maybe. Access depends on residency, accreditation status, and local rules. We gate communications and offerings accordingly.
How is creator IP and likeness handled?
We license IP into the structure with quality controls, moral-turpitude clauses, and step-in rights to protect investors and the brand.
What are the fees?
Transparent. Setup fees for structure and vendors. Ongoing admin, audit, custody, IR, and MM costs. NAV Markets charges advisory and, where appropriate, success-based fees—fully disclosed.
