Closing a Successful Offer ​

Goal: To guide an administrator through verifying that an Offer is fully funded and compliant, and then formally closing it to trigger the release of funds and distribution of tokens.

Actors: Platform Administrator

Steps ​

  1. Automated Legal Closing: When the Offer becomes 100% subscribed, the system automatically transitions its status from PUBLISHED to LEGALLY-CLOSED. At this point, the offer immediately stops accepting new investments.
  • Final Verification: With the offer now LEGALLY-CLOSED, a Platform Administrator uses the Administration Panel to perform final checks. They confirm with the Regulatory Compliance Engine that all investors are compliant and verify with the Investment Process Management service that all investments' funding statuses are RECEIVED.

  1. Closing & Fund Release: With all conditions met, the Administrator executes the "Close Successfully" action. This instructs the Investment Process Management service to:

    • Change the Offer status to CLOSED-SUCCESSFULLY.

    • Cascade this status down to all associated Investments.

    • Trigger the release of all funds from smart escrow (covered by smart contract) to the issuer's account.

  2. Token Distribution: The successful closing of the Offer signals the Distribution & Payout Service. It orchestrates a mass distribution by calling the evm-api to transfer the correct number of tokens from the treasury wallet to each investor's EVM Wallet.

  3. Outcome: The offer is closed, funds are with the issuer, and investors have received their tokens. The Offer now enters its "Servicing" period, where the Distribution & Payout Service will manage ongoing investor reporting and the distribution of any returns.
