There are a couple of ways you can do this:
1. Sophisticated InvestorA Sophisticated Investor is someone who passes one of the following tests, whereby they are then assumed to have sufficient knowledge to be able to evaluate an offer without the need for a full disclosure document. The two tests are:
1.1. a gross income of $250,000 or more per annum in each of the previous two years, or
1.2. net assets of at least $2.5 million
In calculating this amount you are able to include any assets or income from any companies you control. We don’t need to know specifics, but you are required to supply a letter from your accountant outlining that you pass at least one of these two measures. The certificate must be less than six months old when joining but can last for 2 years. You can read more on ASIC’s site
here and see a sample letter
here.
2. Professional InvestorTo be considered a Professional Investor you must either:
2.1. Hold or be named on a relevant Australian Services Financial License (AFSL); or
2.2. have or control gross assets of at least $10 million (including any assets held by an associate or under a trust that you manage)
