Before a single dollar is raised, every sponsor on Aqmār is reviewed against a documented diligence framework.
We verify legal entity standing, ultimate beneficial owners, sanctions and adverse-media exposure, and key-person identity (KYC/AML). Sponsors must provide audited or reviewed financial statements where available.
Realised and unrealised deal history is reviewed alongside references from institutional capital partners and operating counterparties. We confirm claimed returns against source documentation.
Each project is independently modelled. We test sponsor assumptions for revenue, costs, financing, and exit pricing — and require sensitivity analyses for the principal risks identified.
Approved sponsors agree to a quarterly reporting cadence covering operational KPIs, financial performance, material events, and any covenant breaches. Failure to report is grounds for suspension from the platform.
Historically, fewer than 1 in 10 submitted projects clear diligence and reach the marketplace. Aqmār does not list opportunities we would not underwrite ourselves.
