Dharma Capital provides consulting services to clients on strategic business matters. These services do not place Dharma Capital in the role of a Broker/Dealer or an investment advisor.

Dharma Capital is not registered as a securities broker-dealer or an investment adviser with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) or any state securities regulatory authority. At present, Dharma Capital is exempt from federal registration as an investment adviser because it does not provide "continuous and regular supervisory or management services" contemplated by the definition of "investment adviser" under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, does not offer or participate in offers of securities for sale or provide investment advice. In addition, Dharma Capital is not a Broker/Dealer and does not act as an agent for buyers or sellers of businesses, which is consistent with the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 which directs that brokers and dealers in securities register with the SEC and become members of FINRA. According to the SEC, a “broker” is one who provides advice regarding financial transactions who accepts “transaction-based” compensation, which is defined as any commission or finder’s fee which is dependent or based on the execution of a transaction. Moreover, advisors on buying or selling businesses are subject to SEC regulation because transaction advice generally involvers the transfer of securities, wherein equity interests in the business are bought or sold.
