About

The structuring and coordination company of the New Ventures Group platform.

New Ventures Instruments AG advises on, leads and coordinates the structuring of financial instruments for New Ventures Group AG and selected third parties.

Our role

We act as the central structuring, implementation and coordination lead. We manage the complete project and coordinate specialist providers, with internal legal capability for prospectus drafting and coordination. Licence- or authorisation-requiring services are rendered by the appointed licensed partners, not by New Ventures Instruments.

  • One accountable project lead for the whole structure.
  • Internal legal capability for prospectus drafting and coordination.
  • Coordination of issuer setup, documentation, ISIN, bank and paying-agent workstreams.
  • Audit, accounting, compliance and ongoing administration coordination.
  • Ongoing bookkeeping for project companies and issuers.
Operating principles

Accountable

One project lead owns the plan, the sequence and the coordination of every workstream.

Precise

Structures are designed exactly: economics, documentation, jurisdiction and operations.

Transparent

We are clear about role, scope and dependence on providers, authorities and applicable law.

Neutral

We describe structures factually and never promise economic, regulatory or approval outcomes.

People

Founder-led, backed by the New Ventures Group platform.

New Ventures Instruments is deliberately lean: a founder-led team combining legal and structuring depth with board-level oversight, drawing on the wider New Ventures Group platform for prospectus and documentation work.
