THE PROBLEM

Compliance gaps don't announce themselves

They surface during due diligence, when fixing them is 3x the work.

Your compliance is someone's side job.

A small team inside a CA firm, juggling dozens of clients. Your company gets the same bandwidth as an inactive one.

Your compliance is the entire job.

A dedicated team, supported by a cap table platform, owns your filings and deadlines end-to-end.

They don't specialise in venture-backed companies.

CCPS, warrants, FEMA triggers — they work through these, but it's not what they do every day.

Built for venture-backed complexity.

Our team handles these instruments and compliance structures as routine, not as edge cases.

You're the one coordinating.

Chasing signatures, following up with banks, becoming the middleman between your CA, investors, and CS team.

You sign. We handle the rest.

We follow up and close the loop with all parties. Everything is tracked on the platform as a single source of truth.

How EquityList Works

EquityList is a cap table platform with a compliance team built in

Filings pull from live cap table data.

Shareholders, holdings, and security structures are in the system before any filing begins. This ensures faster turnaround times and reduces the risk of errors.

Consents are issued and tracked on the platform.

When board or shareholder approval is needed, the platform shares the resolution, collects signatures, and tracks who has and hasn’t responded.

Reports and registers stay in sync.

Statutory registers like SH-6, disclosure reports, and filing acknowledgements pull from the same ownership data the cap table runs on.

One team, one system.

Context doesn't get lost in a handoff between teams handling equity data and compliance, because they don't exist as separate functions here.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does it cost to work with EquityList's secretarial ops team?

Retainership pricing is based on your company's stage and compliance complexity. A seed-stage company with two founders and no foreign shareholders has very different compliance needs than a Series A company with 20+ shareholders, CCPS, and FEMA obligations. Event-based execution is scoped and priced per engagement.

Can I start with one compliance event before committing to a retainership?

Yes. Many companies come to EquityList first for a specific event, such as a fundraise filing, dematerialisation, or FEMA compliance, and move to a retainership once they see how the system works. That said, if you're already past your first round, it's worth having a conversation about retainership early.

My CS firm already has access to our cap table data. Why does that not work?

Access to data is not the same as working from it. Most CS firms receive a spreadsheet, reconstruct what they need for the filing, and then the data sits separately from your actual cap table. The next time something needs to be filed, the process starts again from scratch. At EquityList, the same team that maintains your cap table executes your compliance directly from it.
