His leadership helps protect investors while creating strategies grounded in conviction and clarity — especially within the landscape of alternative investments and investing options like venture capital funds and private equity funds.

Why Accreditation Is Your Advantage

Being accredited means access to exclusive, high-yield investment opportunities like real estate mortgage notes and fractional notes. Blue Bay Fund I helps you move from speculation to structured investing—with short-term, asset-backed strategies. These types of investment strategies align with long-term goals while minimizing high risk exposure. Accredited investors can invest in private placements that outperform public markets.


How to Get Accredited and Meet SEC Requirements

To become accredited, here's how to get accredited according to the SEC:

SEC Criteria for Accredited Investors

  • $200k+ annual income individually or $300k+ joint income

  • $1M+ net worth (million in assets), excluding your primary residence

  • $5M+ in a trust or business entity

Required Documentation

  • Tax returns

  • CPA letters

  • Brokerage statements

If you're not accredited yet: You may still qualify as an accredited by growing income or restructuring business assets to meet the minimum investment or accreditation thresholds.

These criteria are set by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and determine whether individuals qualify as an accredited investor.


SEC Requirements — A Quick Review

Once accredited, you gain access to exclusive private offerings—investments not registered with the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) because they're intended for those with greater financial savvy and risk tolerance.
