Direct placement Selling a new issue not by offering it for sale publicly, but by placing it with one of several institutional investors. Also known as a private placement.
Direct Placement The sale of a new issue to a few large institutional investors without registering with the SEC. A direct placement is exempt from SEC registration, subject to certain restrictions, because it is not offered to the general public. In order to make a direct placement, the issuer must file a private placement memorandum, which explains exactly why the issue complies with SEC Regulation D exempting certain companies from registration; this is done to protect both the issuer and the investors. According to Regulation D, a PPM must contain a complete description of the security and the terms of the sales. It must also include applicable information about the issuer's financial situation and applicable risk factors. A direct placement is more commonly called a private placement.
