What investment services and advice can you provide me?
Description of Services
We offer brokerage services to retail investors on oasispromarkets.com. Oasis Pro Markets, a regulated ATS, allows its subscribers to trade digital ("blockchain") securities and make payment for those digital securities in digital cash (e.g., stablecoins such as USDC and DAI) or fiat currency.
1) Issuers can offer and sell registered and unregistered securities on the oasispromarkets.com primary offerings platform (“Marketplace”). These securities are being offered by specific issuers and it’s the responsibility of the issuer to provide all pertinent information about these securities offerings.
Please be aware that investing in private, unregistered securities is speculative and involves a high degree of risk. Private, unregistered securities are illiquid and could be subject to holding periods that may hinder your ability to sell such securities. In addition, the securities offered on our Marketplace may be represented or issued on a blockchain in digital form (“digital securities”), which may include additional risks. For example, you may be limited in your ability to sell any digital securities purchased on the Marketplace.
2). Our ATS, allows its subscribers to trade digital securities and make payment for those digital securities in digital cash (e.g., stablecoins such as USDC and DAI) or fiat currency. Oasis Pro Markets' ATS is authorized to allow its subscribers to:
1. Trade both registered and unregistered securities on the ATS;
2. Trade digital securities over-the-counter; and

What fees will I pay?
Description of Fees and Costs
You may pay Oasis Pro Markets a fee every time you buy or sell an investment on its ATS. For secondary transactions on the ATS or where we are an agent, buyers and sellers may be charged up to 2% of the gross transaction price for each transaction. This fee, commonly referred to as a “commission” or “secondary market fee”, is based on the specific transaction and not the value of your account. We have an incentive to encourage you to trade more frequently on the ATS since the more you trade, the more fees we will earn.
Additional Information
You will pay fees and costs whether you make or lose money on your investments. Fees and costs will reduce any amount of money you make on your investments over time. Please make sure you understand what fees and costs you are paying.
Conversation Starter. Ask your financial professional:
- Help me understand how these fees and costs might affect my investments.
- If I give you $10,000 to invest, how much will go to fees and costs, and how much will be invested for me?
What are your legal obligations to me and what conflicts of interest do you have?
Conflicts of Interest
We do not make recommendations regarding securities or investment strategies. The way we make money creates some conflicts with your interests. You should understand and ask us about these conflicts because they can affect the service(s) we provide you. Here are some examples to help you understand what this means:
- We may receive compensation from an issuer of securities for placing or selling their securities and/or providing financial consulting services. Oasis Pro Markets or one of its affiliates may have other business relationships with an issuer (or its affiliates).
- On Oasis Pro Markets’ ATS, we receive fees based on the frequency and size of trades, regardless of whether you make or lose money on your investments.
