MidWest Capital Group Ltd

The Midwest Fund is a full regulated fund implementing the highest standards of compliance and risk management.

Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC)

Our goal is simple: Principled Performance Driven by Transparency.

By definition “GRC” (acronym for GOVERNANCE, RISK & COMPLIANCE ) is the integrated collection of capabilities that enable an organization to reliably achieve objectives, address uncertainty & act with integrity.

Our executive team has authored & implemented industry defining GRC modules for global trading indices and federal governments alike. These best practices are now exercised to ensure full spectrum protection of MidWest stakeholder interests by ensuring that Our House Is In Order.

Saying that Our House Is In Order means 1) that our internal company policies & procedures are operational, thereby ensuring proper regulatory compliance, ethical employee conduct, risk mitigation, and assured performance; 2) that each of our investors, stakeholders, and partners that we invest in meet our selective Know Your Customer (KYC) standard; and 3) that each investment opportunity has been thoroughly vetted out and meets our stringent risk mitigation and opportunity amplification criteria.

As mentioned, our internal policies for Risk Management & Financial Control includes an industry best 1) Know Your Customer (KYC) Clearance, 2) Anti-Money Laundering & Fraud Prevention Policies, 3) Internal Regulatory Compliance Policies With 3rd Party Audit Oversight, and 4) Project Underwriting Based on Strategic Environmental, Social & Governance Benchmarks (ESG Sensibility).

MidWest believes that enlightened understanding and management of both opportunity & potential risk optimizes fund sustainability, engenders positive socioeconomic impact, and facilitates highest return on investment (ROI).

Investment Fund Risk Mitigation & Exit Strategies

Each individual MidWest Opportunity Fund has a clearly defined operational and exit strategy mitigating potential risk and facilitating fund success. This is accomplished by such activities as government participation, asset securitization, predefined refinancing solutions, strategic joint ventures, phased development driven by sales benchmarks, insured performance bonds, revenue agreements with established entities, reinsurance, et al. Risk Need Not Be Feared, But Rather Properly Assessed, Measured & Managed… Therein Lies the Victory! Examples of mitigation may include:

  • Government Participation: e.g. Guarantees, Bonds, Joint Ventures, Concessions, cash, Assets/Collateral, Build Operate Transfer arrangements
  • Asset Securitization: e.g. Creation of Paper Sold on Secondary Market, Bonds, insurance, reinsurance, additional collateral
  • Refinancing: e.g. Refinance as each phase is completed, Takeout letters from noted entities
  • Joint Ventures: e.g. Private Public Partnerships, BOTs, Private Sector Ventures, Fund With Fund Syndication
  • Phased Investment: e.g. Fund next phase only once Predetermined sales benchmarks are accomplished
  • Assurance: e.g. Performance Bonds, Insurance, Reinsurance, Takeout letters from noted entities
