About BeeBonds

WHAT IS BEEBONDS?
BeeBonds is an alternative financing platform that can resort to public offerings and allows investors to directly finance corporate projects by subscribing to bonds issued by these companies.

WHO IS BEHIND BEEBONDS?
BeeBonds is represented by diversified shareholders who are active in the financial, real estate and new technology sectors.

HOW DOES BEEBONDS WORK?
A company looking for funding to support a project can apply for BeeBonds. Both the company and the project are evaluated and validated by the BeeBonds selection committee before being published on the website "beebonds.com". As an Investor, you can support the project by participating in the fundraising. Via the platform and your secured access, you complete your subscription form. Each bond issue bears an ISIN number issued by an approved organisation. The ISIN code is the identifier that acts as a "national identification number" specific to each financial instrument. By completing your subscription form, you are investing in bonds issued by the company. The company will send you a registered certificate attesting to your ownership of the bonds you have subscribed to. Each year, on the anniversary date of the bond issue, a "coupon", representing the income generated by your investment, i.e. the interest due, is paid by the issuer directly into the bank account you will have entered in your investor account. The interest rate (generally between 6 and 12%) is different for each project. This rate is fixed by the terms of the issue and is defined in the Information Memorandum of each fund raising. It cannot change during the course of the project. Each bond is issued for a term that is fixed at the outset.

WHAT ARE THE RISKS ON INVESTMENT?
Any investment in bonds issued through BeeBonds involves risks. These risks are limited to the amount of your investment. The risk is that you may lose all or part of your invested capital and/or interest. The risk has to be assessed in comparison with the attractiveness of the interest rates offered. Indeed, one of the main rules in investment is that risk and return go hand in hand: the higher the return, the higher the risk. Therefore, only invest in what you understand and only in amounts that you do not immediately need.

WHAT ARE THE RISKS OF A PROJECT?
Beebonds evaluates the quality of projects for you with the help of its selection committee. However, each project has its own risks. It is therefore imperative to carefully analyze the specifics of the project you want to invest in before making a decision. All the details are available on the site and you can always contact our team to answer your questions. Your objective should always be the same: to understand what you are investing in.

HOW AM I INFORMED ABOUT THE PROGRESS OF A PROJECT?
You are kept regularly informed of project progress through quarterly reports available on the platform in the corresponding project section. At any time, you can contact the BeeBonds teams for more information. Furthermore, and via your secured access to the platform, you can follow your investments in the projects you have financed from your personal Dashboard.

AM I PROTECTED AS AN INVESTOR?
Bonds, issued through Beebonds, are debt instruments subordinated to a bank loan. Your title to the subscribed bonds is represented by a registered certificate issued by the issuer in your name. You are therefore covered by the regulations in force defining the issue and purchase of bonds. Your rights as a bondholder are also described in the Information Note relating to the issue of each bond.

WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES?
De voordelen die onze investeerders het vaakst noemen zijn het hoge rendement (meestal tussen 6 en 12% op jaarbasis), de mogelijkheid om obligaties te verhandelen, de zekerheid van het hebben van een echte obligatie, het concrete en veilige karakter van vastgoed, het intellectuele belang (na vastgoedtransacties "van binnenuit") en de investering in de reële economie.

HOW TO GET STARTED?
Start by consulting the projects currently being financed on our website "beebonds.com". Be sure to choose a project that meets your expectations. Click on "Invest now" and you will only have to follow the procedure to make your first investment. By completing your "online" subscription form, your commitment to subscribe for the amount you have indicated will only be definitive once the funds are credited to the issue account indicated in the subscription form. As soon as the fund-raising is closed, you will receive your registered certificate electronically. The original will be sent to you by post.

HOW CAN I BUY A BOND FROM BEEBONDS?

WHAT HAPPENS IF THE FULL FUNDING OF A PROJECT IS NOT MET?
If the issuer does not collect the minimum amount necessary for the project as indicated in the Information Memorandum, the amount(s) transferred to the issue account in payment of your subscription commitment will be returned to you without any charge or penalty.

HOW MUCH DOES BEEBONDS COST TO THE INVESTOR?
BeeBonds services are completely free for the investor. All costs related to a fund raising are borne by the issuer.

CAN I INVEST IN SEVERAL PROJECTS AT THE SAME TIME?
The investor can choose to diversify his portfolio by investing freely in several fundraising events. By diversifying his investments in this way, the investor will significantly reduce his level of risk. Through his secure access to his Dashboard, the investor will have an overview of his investments in the issues organized by BeeBonds to which he has subscribed.

HOW IS REPAYMENT OF AN INVESTMENT MADE?
On the maturity date, the issuer reimburses directly to the investor, on the bank account indicated in his "Investor Account", the capital invested under the conditions defined in the Information Memorandum increased by the last "coupon". The issuer will deduct the taxes in force on the maturity date. No fees will be charged either by the issuer or by Beebonds.
