Can an institutional participant also become a capital reader?

Yes, an institutional participant or its authorized representative may become a capital reader if separately reviewed and approved for that role. 

Institutional participation alone does not create capital-reader status. Capital-reader status requires specific review because Capital-Reader Rooms are controlled finance-readiness environments. The review may consider professional role, institutional mandate, conflicts, confidentiality, safe-meeting readiness, securities-law sensitivity, investment-process boundaries, and the purpose of the room. 

An institutional participant may be a sponsor, partner, Helix Council participant, financial institution, development finance institution, asset manager, fund, bank, foundation, public finance institution, or other organization. That status does not automatically make it appropriate for capital-reader access. 

If approved, a capital reader must operate within the GRA boundary: capital readability is not investment advice, not due diligence completion, not securities promotion, not endorsement, and not capital commitment. 

A capital reader may identify questions, gaps, and readiness issues. They do not approve investment through GRA. 

Institutional status and capital-reader status are separate records.
