Market Leaders in
Charity Flow-Through Financing
Oberon is a leading Charity Flow-Through ("CFT") provider and registered as an Exempt Market Dealer and Restricted Portfolio Manager in every province of Canada and an Investment Fund Manager in Ontario, Alberta and Newfoundland. Oberon has facilitated over CAD$2.2 billion of CFT over the last 15 years, significantly enhancing its clients' giving power and transforming the lives of the people they support.
CFT is a uniquely Canadian structured financing product, that eliminates market and liquidity risk while combining two long established government tax regimes:
- Flow-Through Shares and
- Charitable Donation Tax credits
Oberon’s structured format simultaneously benefits the Canadian charity and not-for-profit sector and the Canadian resource exploration and development sector - two critical elements of the Canadian economy. It significantly reduces a philanthropist's after-tax cost of giving, while enabling greater access to capital at reduced dilution for natural resource companies exploring and developing in Canada.
