Overview

Snowball Effect is a New Zealand-based online investment marketplace that connects investors with opportunities in private New Zealand growth companies and managed funds. It was one of the first companies to receive an equity crowdfunding license from the Financial Markets Authority (FMA) in New Zealand, launching in August 2014. The platform facilitates various types of capital raises, including public, private, and wholesale offers for equity, debt, and convertible notes. Recently, the company has expanded its offerings to include access to alternative assets and managed funds, aiming to lower the barrier to entry for retail investors.
