Private Markets, Protected: An Investor Session
The best private market opportunities rarely reach the general public — and for qualified investors, the real question isn't just access. It's how a position is held, how gains are realized, and how the resulting wealth moves through a corporation and an estate once the investment performs.
Join Jeff Chiu, President of ConnectR Capital and Exempt Market Dealer, and Carl Brodie, CFP®, Chief Financial Planner at Stone Owl Family Office, for an afternoon session bringing together a curated group of issuers alongside the estate and tax strategy that protects what those investments create.
What Will Be Covered
A curated look at current private fund and exempt market opportunities, presented directly by the issuers
What sophisticated investors should evaluate before committing capital
Tax and estate considerations when a private investment creates significant wealth
How corporate-owned insurance complements — rather than replaces — a strong investment position
