The $13 Trillion Market You’re Locked Out Of

Why Most Founders Never Get Funded — And How to Change That with One Triangle

Preview text: Discover how PISCES and the Exponential Blueprint help small founders go from invisible to investable in today’s private capital markets.

The $13 Trillion Reality

Private capital markets are at an all-time high, reshaping the landscape of global finance.

With total assets under management soaring to $13 trillion and projections of $20 trillion by 2030, these markets host more than 215,000 private equity- and venture capital-backed companies — a staggering 25 times the number of publicly listed firms.

Yet, despite this immense pool of capital, many small and medium-sized businesses find themselves on the outside looking in. In 2023 alone, fundraising dipped to $1.0 trillion, the lowest since 2017, with venture capital deal counts seeing the sharpest decline.

Despite this, private debt emerged as a top performer in 2024, with returns of 9.11%, outpacing even some of the most prominent public market indices.

But for many founders, these numbers might feel distant, even frustrating.

You may be asking, "If there's so much capital out there, why can't my business tap into it?"

The Capital Markets Lockout: The Invisible Founder

If you’re a founder of a scaling or stagnating business, the feeling of invisibility in the eyes of investors and capital providers is all too familiar.

You’re not alone. Thousands of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) share this struggle.

Despite having innovative products, loyal customer bases, and strong growth potential, these businesses remain unseen by mainstream capital markets.

The reason? It’s not a lack of value but a lack of visibility.

Traditional pathways to capital, like public listings or large-scale private equity deals, often come with high barriers — complexity, cost, and the need for a certain scale that many SMEs haven’t yet reached.

Without a clear exit plan or a visible share price, even the most promising businesses can be overlooked.

PISCES: A New Dawn for SMEs

Imagine a capital market designed specifically for businesses like yours.

That’s where PISCES (Private Intermittent Securities and Capital Exchange System) comes in. PISCES offers a revolutionary approach that allows SMEs to participate in intermittent trading, enabling founders to sell a portion of their shares a few times a year without the need for a full-scale IPO.

This not only provides liquidity for founders but also establishes a real-time valuation that can transform relationships with banks, investors, and even employees.

It’s a simpler, more cost-effective solution compared to traditional public listings, making it a perfect fit for businesses that have long been overlooked.

With PISCES, visibility becomes your superpower:

✅ Sell a portion of your shares without giving up control
✅ Establish your valuation without going public
✅ Motivate your team with real equity potential
✅ Improve bank relationships by showing a transparent market value
✅ Attract investors who want to enter — and exit — on founder-friendly terms

PiSCES vs. Public Markets: A Structured Comparison

Real Stories: From Factory Floors to Fortune

You’ve heard of NVIDIA. But let’s look closer:

Over 6,000 employees became millionaires at NVIDIA — not because of salary, but because they held shares in a company that executed a strong exit and valuation strategy.

Their equity plan changed lives, fueled loyalty, and created unstoppable momentum.

But here’s the secret:
You don’t need to be a tech giant to make this happen.

In Yorkshire, a 38-person manufacturing company implemented an employee share scheme.
Five years later, they exited for £42 million.
The founder retained control. The team shared in the success.
A local business. A life-changing outcome.

This is the power of visibility. Of structured equity. Of thinking ahead.

M&A : The Expert Corner, From Indonesia

When integration falters, many factors can contribute, but two stand out as particularly critical and can be prevented with proper planning:

Inadequate Due Diligence

The primary culprit is often a due diligence process that lacks the necessary depth.

Whether due to unavailable data, a lack of confidence in the findings, or other underlying issues, the outcome is consistently detrimental.

Key risks remain hidden, preventing proper mitigation and accurate financial accounting. This directly impacts the business case, leading to an incomplete understanding of the true cost structure for the integration and even missed opportunities for value creation.

Unrealistic Business Case Assumptions

The second major reason for integration failure stems from unrealistic assumptions within the initial business case.

These flawed assumptions, whether concerning aggressive growth ratesor the useful ligfe of assets, create immediate and significant gaps between projections and reality. This sets the integrationup for challenges right from the start.
