Your questions answered.
To start, we don't plan to go out of business! We are backed by large institutional investors, generating revenue, and maintaining an ample runway. As any business should, we maintain a continuity plan.
In the highly unlikely event that we did wind down the business, your money is still safe. At a high level, here's what you need to know and how it would wind down:
- All LP shares of funds are held in a separate, bankruptcy-remote legal entity from the one that we use to run our day-to-day operations. Second, Heron Finance works with a qualified custodian, Inspira, that custodies said LP shares.
- In the event that Heron Finance's operating entity were to shut down, we would submit redemption requests to all of the funds.
- Then that separate holding entity and Inspira would work to identify a backup service provider that could manage the redemptions and work to facilitate the return of your capital.
Anyone automatically qualifies as an “accredited investor” if they meet just one of the following criteria:
- Income: Individual income of $200,000, or joint (with a spouse or partner) income of $300,000 for the two prior years, with the same anticipated in the current year
- Net Worth: Individual or combined (with a spouse or partner) net worth of $1 million or greater, excluding your primary residence
- Exam: A Series 7, 65, or 82 in good standing
You can verify your status as an accredited investor as a part of our sign-up process. The documents you need will depend on the method of verification. You only need to verify via one of the following:
- Income verification: Connect your payroll provider, or upload W-2s, K-1s, 1099s, paystubs, or tax returns to verify your income
- Net worth verification: Bank statements, brokerage statements, securities holdings statements, certificates of deposit, tax assessments, or appraisal reports (Note: when you use the net worth verification, we pull a “soft” credit report that will not impact your credit score.)
- 3rd party letter: A letter from an attorney or accountant testifying that you are accredited
To learn more about how to become accredited, see our article: 4 Easy Steps to Becoming an Accredited Investor.

Credit risks associated with the investments include (among others): (i) the possibility that earnings of a borrower may be insufficient to meet its debt service obligations; (ii) a borrower's assets declining in value; and (iii) the declining creditworthiness, default, and potential for insolvency of a borrower during periods of rising interest rates and economic downturn.
