A More Strategic Way
to
Access Liquidity
Capital markets today move faster than ever. Information cycles turn over in minutes, algorithms amplify volatility, and perception can shift before fundamentals do. For public company insiders, the challenge isn’t only financial—it’s reputational.
O+C provides an alternative. Our lending programs allow clients to generate liquidity privately, without triggering disclosure events or unsettling their positions. Each transaction is bespoke, shaped around a client’s jurisdiction, timing, and objectives. In practice, that means greater flexibility, tax efficiency, and the ability to act deliberately even when markets are not.
O+C’s clients include founders, C-suite executives, and long-term holders who understand that discretion is often the most valuable form of stability.
