Why are details of an offer listed on Offer Notice Board?

Fundraising disclosure documents are listed on Offer Notice Board to assist with their exposure to the public The Offer Notice Board pertains to both on-market (offers relating to quoted securities) and off-market offer summary information.

A summary description of the offer or financial product is provided to the market. When these offers involve securities which are not quoted on a stock exchange, information as to where and how the disclosure document may be accessed during the exposure period is provided.

What is the exposure period?

The exposure period gives the market and ob体育 an opportunity to consider the information in the disclosure document before the issuer can accept applications for subscription or purchase of the securities or the financial product.

A person offering non quoted securities (i.e. not listed on a stock exchange) will not be allowed to accept applications for the issue or transfer of securities until 7 days after lodgement of the disclosure document with ob体育 (s 727(3)). When disclosures in the offer document are considered to be deficient the market may bring this to the attention of ob体育 for consideration. Alternatively they may take their own action. ob体育 may extend the 7 day exposure period to a maximum of 14 days in these circumstances.

Offers of quoted securities will not be subject to any exposure period.

If a product disclosure statement is required to be lodged for a financial product, there is similarly to be no issue or sale of that financial product until seven days after lodgement of the product disclosure statement with ob体育 (s1016B). When disclosures in a product disclosure document are considered to be deficient the market may draw these to our attention for consideration.
