Unlock the Potential of Private Market Investments
I’m Sushee Perumal, a registered dealing representative with Rethink & Diversify Securities Inc., which has raised over $300 million for various businesses.Private Market investments have transformed my life as both an entrepreneur and an investor.Now, as a registered dealing representative with Rethink & Diversify Securities Inc. I’m here to offer investment opportunities that diversify your investment portfolio while fueling the ambitions of entrepreneurs who offer these investments.
What are your investment goals?
I sought a middle ground between the volatility of Public Markets and the low returns of GICs, leading me to discover Private Market investments. True diversification and robust portfolios extend beyond Public Markets, which is why the affluent and even pension funds consistently turn to Private Markets, utilizing alternative investments and tax strategies.
Why Consider Private Market Investments?
It's important to review the applicable offering memorandum or term sheet in detail before investing to ensure you understand the risks as outlined.
Diversification
Looking to diversify beyond the volatility of public markets? Even when diversified stocks and mutual funds remain susceptible to market swings. Private markets offer an additional layer of diversification, favored by the affluent and pension funds. As with any investment, it's crucial to understand the associated risks.
Income
Looking to have your money work harder for you? Some private investments aim for 8.5% to over 12% annualized returns, paid monthly or quarterly. Be aware that the investment income is not guaranteed.
Defer Taxes
Looking to defer income taxes on investment payouts? Certain private funds can provide additional income without the extra tax burden, often through a T5013 tax slip. Always understand the associated risks with investing.
Tax Reduction
Looking to reduce taxes on your current income? Alongside RRSPs, some private investments offer "flow-throughs" for tax reduction. It's important to note that not all tax reduction strategies may be suitable for every investor.
Target Returns
Looking for risk adjusted higher annualized targeted returns? Some private market funds target higher returns than what's available in the public markets. Note that the higher returns come with higher risks.
Registered Funds
Looking to invest with registered funds (RRSP/TFSA) or directly from your corporate account? Put your registered funds to work in private markets. With the higher risks, this might not be suitable for every investor.
Diversified Sectors
Looking to participate in sectors such as apartment buildings, agriculture, mortgages, private lending, etc.? Adding these sectors can diversify your portfolio. However, it's crucial to understand the associated risks as with any investment.

About me
Sushee Perumal
I grew a business from a $50,000 initial investment to $34 million in sales, expanding across 30+ cities in North America.As the business scaled, I needed financing but found that most options weren’t founder-friendly. Now, through Private Market placements, I’m helping entrepreneurs secure founder-friendly investments while enabling investors to invest like the affluent.Additionally, I do not take custody of funds—investments go directly to the companies I represent. Any fees I earn are paid by the company.
