When investing in tokenized real estate, regulatory compliance isn't just a checkbox — it's your primary line of protection as an investor. Here's what Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) compliance means for your Futurestate investments.
Why OSC Compliance Matters
The OSC is Ontario's securities regulator, responsible for protecting investors and fostering fair capital markets. Futurestate's compliance with OSC regulations means your investments have the same legal standing as traditional securities offerings. You receive offering memorandums, audited financial statements, and recourse through established legal channels.
Investor Protection Tiers
Under NI 45-106, the OSC defines investor categories that determine investment limits. Accredited Investors (net assets over $5M or income over $200K) have unlimited investment capacity. Eligible Investors can invest up to $100,000 per offering. Verified Investors are limited to $10,000. These tiers exist to ensure investors don't overextend into illiquid assets.
How Futurestate Enforces Compliance
Our platform enforces compliance at every layer: KYC verification determines your investor tier. Smart contracts enforce investment limits at the token level. Transfer restrictions prevent tokens from being sent to non-verified wallets. Quarterly reporting provides transparency into property performance. All of this is automated and verifiable on-chain.
