Has anyone ever made a private investment into a startup? For background, I have an opportunity to invest and due to the tight timeline, not sure if I need to get compliance involved. It is in a newer industry that my fund does not invest in. Wonder if anyone has been in similar situations and what compliance could potentially do.

I have done this before and needed written compliance permission in advance. I have never seen a seed stage investment blocked, it’s really just procedural.

I have and agree with Apollo. I had to disclose and compliance had to sign off, which they did. Compliance told me they see this all the time and it’s no big deal. Note that in my case I was investing in a bar/restaurant.

Thanks! Will most likely let compliance know as a CYA but realistically how would they ever find out?
