In addition, Reg D funds are limited to a small group of investors thus having little liquidity.
LIQUID RARITY EXCHANGE is an exchange devoted to “Tangible Rarities” of superior value offered to millions of investors in the general public through various SEC registered investment vehicle. Investors through LRE can purchase “fractional shares” of “Rarity Funds” and benefit from its inherent appreciated value. Millions of investors will have the opportunity to trade the fractional shares in the exchange, thus creating greater liquidity.
