Setting up whitelist

How to set up and manage whitelists?

What is a whitelist?

A whitelist is a group of investors who are authorized to access the primary and secondary markets for specific assets. Whitelists are separate from assets, so you can reuse them across multiple assets (for example, different tranches of a structured debt security with identical investor criteria) or maintain one whitelist per asset.

How is a whitelist defined?

Since whitelists are primarily grouping tools for investors, they have minimal parameters:

Property
Meaning
Example

Name

Name of the whitelist

"EU investors"

External reference

Your system's identifier for easier reference

<any sort of ID used in customer's system>

You can modify the investor list at any time by adding or removing investors. Only verified investors can be added to whitelists.

Using whitelist as categories for investors

Since our platform allows you to avoid storing investor private data, whitelists serve as an effective way to represent investor criteria and qualifications without exposing sensitive information.

You can assign combinations of whitelists to specific assets, creating precise criteria for who can invest in each asset. This approach gives you flexible control over investor access while maintaining compliance with qualification requirements.

Example of using whitelists for categorization:

You can set up the following whitelist structure for multiple assets and diverse investor pools:

  • "Professional Investors EU"

  • "Professional Investors US"

  • "Retail Investors US"

  • "Retail Investors EU"

  • "Investors EU" (combining retail and professional)

  • "Investors US" (combining retail and professional)

When onboarding an investor onto the platform, you can add them to multiple whitelists (e.g., to general EU investors and professional ones). When creating an asset, you can choose which whitelists to apply, effectively setting the qualification criteria.
