Abstract

A business evaluation system generates for a stock investor a financial report that evaluates a business entity offering stock for sale. The system includes a pledge account in which to deposit pledge money; and, a portal including a memory for storing for a plurality of stock investors profile data, and the quantity of money pledged by each stock investor for the business entity. The memory also stores a pledge database containing the total pledge amount for the business entity. The system also includes a computer operably connected to the memory and operable to receive for each stock investor profile data and the amount of money pledged by each stock investor for the business entity, to direct pledge money to the pledge account, and to determine when a threshold amount of pledge money is received for the business entity. The system also includes a system to withdraw pledge money from the pledge account and to generate independently of the business entity an independent completed evaluation report for the business entity when the threshold amount of pledge money is received; and, a system to permit access to the completed independent evaluation report by stock investors that contributed money to the pledge account.
