1. Content

SAV Platform-generated content

The SAV Platform is intended to provide general information regarding social investment opportunities undertaken by entrepreneurs who have chosen to position themselves in the social space. Sources of these opportunities may come from Investors themselves, incubators at academic institutes of management or technology, community-based organisations (which may or may not be registered as affiliates of non-profit organisations in different countries, mostly India), or Entrepreneur Support Organisations.

SA VENTURES may undertake but is not obliged to make reasonable efforts to moderate and screen content on the SAV Platform (at random inspection), however, SA VENTURES shall not be responsible for the content of any diligence report executed on any project listed on SAV Platform or similar material.

All other content under the News and Resource Center of the SAV Platform will be generated by SAV Platform staff and is gathered primarily from secondary and other online news sources, with appropriate attributions. The SAV Platform blog will be generated by the SAV Platform team. The SAV Platform does not take responsibility for the content of any commentary/posts/links, etc. generated by Users on any portion of the site, whether open or closed domain (protected by password).

Some cursory information uploaded to specific social business profiles on the main SAV Pipeline will be visible to the entire community of selected investors on the Website. However, access to the full profile of any entrepreneur on the Website is limited, and only those signing the automated Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) can access this more detailed information.

All Users of SAV Platform are bound to protect the privacy and confidentiality of all information (including information relating to social businesses and projects featured on the Website) posted on the Website in accordance with the confidentiality provisions set out in these Terms. Breaches of these confidentiality provisions may result in expulsion from the SAV Platform.

See Diligence process (Section 10a) below for further detail on how the site operates.

1. Eligible Users

SA VENTURES will accept requests to partake on the Website contingent upon further discussions, and reserves the right to control the growth and profile of the Users at its discretion. The SAV Platform community is formed on the basis of relationships, and it will be a general rule that new users to the SAV Platform should have had some prior contact with an existing User in order to receive an invitation to join, unless they are an entrepreneur/Promoter. The SAV Platform administrator controls access to all user requests for membership. For the purposes of the beta launch of the Website, Investors who want to access the SAV Platform must be qualified investors within the meaning of article 10 (3) of the Swiss Collective Investment Schemes Act ("CISA"). The[KK1] [AS2]  following are deemed to be qualified investors; Supervised financial intermediaries such as banks, securities dealers and fund management companies; supervised insurance companies; public entities and retirement benefits institutions with a professional treasury; companies with a professional treasury; independent financial advisors that are subject to anti money laundering regulations and the code of conduct of an industry organization recognized by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority ("FINMA"); high net worth individuals holding directly or indirectly financial assets in excess of Swiss francs 2 million.)[AS3] 

SAV Platform User types are defined as follows:

Investors: In function, these are 'by invite only' and comprise entities and organizations that qualify as professional investors and who have expressed an open interest in impact investment opportunities. These may include: qualified individuals, private foundations, financial institutions, corporations, social venture capital/private equity funds, donor-advised funds, trusts, estates, etc. They can connect to one another and to all User types as long as they initiate contact; they are protected from all other User types on the SAV Platform.

Entrepreneur Support Organizations: In function, these are 'by invite only' and represent organizations whose primary task is the identification, selection and support of socially motivated entrepreneurs who are keen to use enterprise as a tool for combating major development challenges. They may serve as a gateway for social entrepreneurs who they see fit to extend an invitation link into the SAV Pipeline (pending administrative approvals), and view the SAV Pipeline at a top level, with the exception of those enterprises that they have supported or identified themselves. These organizations may be connected to by Investors, but may not initiate contact with them. They can connect to one another and to Third Parties.

3rd Parties: In function, these are 'by invite only' and represent a range of different sized entities whose primary offerings are comprised of business services including diligence, business development, and capacity building in various forms. These organizations may be connected to by Investors, but may not initiate contact with them. They can connect to one another and to Entrepreneur Support Organizations.

Enterprise Support Organizations (ESOs)/Promoters: These entrepreneurs are 'by invite only' and may 'register' on the SAV Website through a pre-registration process; if their business model qualifies as 'socially motivated' or socially conscious, and if broad objectives fulfill the stated mission of the SAV Platform, they will be approved and listed on the SAV Pipeline. These organizations may be connected to by Investors, but otherwise do not have access to the investor network directly; an entrepreneur may initiate contact with an entrepreneur support organization or third party from within the network, and may also connect with one another.

The selection and invitation of users is at the sole discretion of SA VENTURES. 

1. Diligence

All Investors engaged in the community on the Website must register their details, and agree that any contracts relating to diligence and arising as a result of connections formed on the Website will be invoiced offline and between all parties involved in said diligence transaction.

No payments for diligence contracts are executed through the Website; all [KK4] [AS5] payments between parties for diligence contracts must be handled offline, but made transparently so as to benefit all parties involved in a given diligence 'share'.

1. Diligence Process

The Website presents a collaborative online environment whereby Users may work together in concert to complete a diligence report on any given social business listed in the SAV Pipeline. There are 15 standardized Diligence "modules" at the disposal of Users of the Website, all of which are optional and that reflect the aggregation of the diligence methodologies of several practitioners in the sector. These modules are inclusive of a series of questions that fulfill each of the areas of due diligence query as follows: BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, COMPANY ANALYSIS, COMPANY GOVERNANCE/MANAGEMENT, CUSTOMER BASE, FINANCIAL ANALYSIS, FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT, FUNDING STRATEGY, INDUSTRY/MARKET ANALYSIS, INVESMTENT PROPOSITION, LEGAL, RISK ASSESSMENT, SOCIAL IMPACT, TECHNOLOGY, TARGET POPULATION, and REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION CHECKLIST. Each one of these modules reflects a series of standard queries and 'information capture' fields under each of the fifteen topic headings.

The first Investor to "signal interest" in any organization will be considered a 'lead Investor', and will thereon determine (for a defined period of 30 days) which other Investors in the community may (or may not) join in to share in the process of Diligence. The Diligence process is split into 5 active stages, where upon an Investor signals interest, initiates Due Diligence, signals that Diligence is underway, signals that Due Diligence has been completed, and finally signals that an investment has been completed. The last and final stage of confirmation is comprised of signaling only, and it is important to note that funds are not uploaded, transferred or transacted in any way through the Website at any time. Furthermore, structuring any transaction must happen offline and outside the parameters of the Website.

Three options are presented to a given Investor once initial interest is signaled in an organization: 1) Diligence may be conducted by themselves, 2) Diligence may be opened to a bidding/tender process involving a selected network of 3rd Parties in-country who are Users of the Website, or 3) Diligence may be conducted by a 3rd Party who is directly appointed. The process thereon is self-explanatory, and the system is designed to maximize communication and encourage information sharing as it pertains to impacting the transaction costs of seeing investors achieve comfort with the social businesses the Website aims to support.

In the event that a User selects the option to either invite 3rd Parties to bid or appoint a 3rd Party entity capable of supporting the exercise of Diligence in a particular enterprise, the bid process and the entities party to it function independently of SA VENTURES and SA VENTURES does not take responsibility in any form for the outcome of such activities.

3rd Parties receiving information about an organization to conduct Diligence on behalf of an Investor on a social enterprise are responsible for their own bid in terms of content, pricing and structure. They may or may not receive acknowledgement or a response from Investors in this process. It is the responsibility of 3rd Parties to negotiate their own agreements for service rendered to the Investors and to close their own contracts (including effectuation of invoicing and payment) as they see fit. SA VENTURES does not have any role, direct or indirect, in setting the pricing or terms for such work.

1. Disclaimers around Diligence

All Investors acknowledge that the conclusions drawn by all Diligence reports and analysis (in any form, including documents, .pdfs, Powerpoints, Excel documents, or media of any kind) posted by Users or established by a 3rd Party do not reflect recommendations of SA VENTURES. Accordingly, SA VENTURES shall not under any circumstance be liable to any User for any loss incurred as a result of reliance on such material.

These reports and analysis are purely informational, and shared by peers on the Website in the spirit of collaboration and efficiency.

SA VENTURES is not responsible and cannot be held liable for any misuse of any confidential material provided by the Promoters or any other person to the Investor in a diligence process or posted by any User on the Website.

1. No investment actions

The SAV Platform is not a transactional platform. [KK6] [AS7] The Website is not involved in investment actions of any kind and the Users may not use the Website for actual investment transactions of any kind.

Information posted on the SAV Platform by Users does not constitute investment advice or an offer to invest and is not intended for trading purposes. Users need to consult with their own investment, accounting, legal and tax advisers to evaluate independently the risks, consequences and suitability of any action to complete investment made as a result of learning through the SAV Platform.

SAV PLATFORM IS INTENDED ONLY FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES AND IS NOT AN OFFER OF SECURITIES OF ANY KIND BY ANYONE, NOR DOES IT CONSTITUTE AN OFFER BY SAV OF OTHER SERVICES (SUCH AS ADVISORY SERVICES) OR PRODUCTS[KK8] [AS9] [AS10] . SA VENTURES DOES NOT PARTICIPATE IN THE NEGOTIATION OR EXECUTION OF INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS OR HANDLE SECURITIES.

Cautionary Language Regarding Forward Looking Statements

Information posted on the SAV Platform may contain estimates, projections or other statements that are forward looking in nature ("Forward looking statements"). Any such forward-looking statements are inherently speculative and subject to numerous risks and uncertainties. Actual results and performance may be significantly different from historical experience and present expectations or projections. SA VENTURES undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements.

1. Fees

SA VENTURES incurs financial, administrative and other expenses associated with the operation of the Website and network convener. Invited users of the system will discuss a fee structure outside the platform.

It is the duty of all Users party to the Website to report on the status of a Diligence negotiation and to disclose whether a contract has been completed to this end; this is part of our knowledge sharing mandate and is based on the Honor Code implicit within the functioning of this online community.

We ask you to inform the SAV Platform community whether you plan to make an investment based on the diligence agreement sourced through the SAV Platform and to indicate the intended commitment/amount of such planned investment through the user interface.[KK11] [AS12] 

SA VENTURES reserves the right to adjust any fees and percentages at any time on written notice in the future.

Expiry of Enterprises on the Platform

In the event that an Enterprise is listed for longer than twelve months without receiving any signal of interest in conducting diligence, the Project may then be "deleted", in which case all parties responsible for originally posting the organization will be notified.

1. Confidentiality

Each User agrees that he/she will not use, divulge or communicate to any person, except to its professional representatives or advisers or as may be required by law or any legal or regulatory authority, any confidential information concerning the business or affairs of any other User of the Website or of any member of the group of companies to which such User belongs or any investee entity which may have or may in future come to its knowledge and each User shall use its best endeavors to prevent the publication or disclosure of any confidential information concerning such matters.

Data Security: To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy and ensure the correct use of your registration data and Data Contribution, SA VENTURES has put in place what SA VENTURES believes to be reasonable physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure your Registration Data and Data Contribution.

Promoters are advised to use caution when completing their profile(s) on the SAV Platform and using the system as a repository for sensitive information, the existing automated NDA notwithstanding. Enforcement of said non-disclosure agreements in differing jurisdictions may not be possible, and you are encouraged to consider sharing some of the more sensitive information about your business in bilateral communications offline and outside the SAV Platform. Promoters are also advised to ensure that they have all necessary permissions from all parties involved in their enterprise including previous investors before mention of such details on the SAV Platform. Promoters are responsible for their own posts on SAV Platform, and for the communication of their own information; SA VENTURES is not responsible under any circumstance for breaches of confidentiality that may arise over time.
