Private Companies
For private companies who have no intention of becoming public they can apply to use ZATS Trading Platform for an IPL (initial private listing) providing issuers and shareholders many of the same services as their public counterparts (allowed within the SEC legal constraints), including secondary liquidity and trading capability through a private trading portal for the company and its shareholders including ZATS Trading Platform electronic settlement and transfer services. By staying private but allowing secondary liquidity a company has greater independence, easier access to capital for long term growth, eliminates many of the costs of being public and avoids Sarbanes-Oxley, allowing greater privacy, and reduced legal and regulatory risk.
