Privatisation, Investment and Equity
SeaStrong facilities are developed as independent but linked entities with ownership structures that support local government, fishers, fisher communities, investment and research. We seek out international and local investment but limit international ownership to 49%. SeaStrong facility ownership is designed to strengthen local government entities and supporting communities and fishers. This profit sharing mechanism is designed to pay for its own development in that local governments can use its profit share to support the development of their marine aquarium trade.
- Create local and international investment opportunities for a Country's marine aquarium trade;
- Develop and promote a series of practical privatisation and investment options;
- Provide investor screening and investment linking services;
- Manage development of “investment” through equity stake trusts such as a Fisher Trust; and
- Ensure that the economic Bottom Line remains the operational bottom line in the development of this new industry in your Country.
