Prospectus

A required legal document that offers securities or Mutual Fund shares for sale.

The Securities Act of 1933 requires that a prospectus explain the terms, issuer, objectives (if a Mutual Fund) or planned use of the money (if securities) and historical financial statements included in the Offer.A prospectus is a legal document that institutions and businesses use to describe the securities they are offering for participants and buyers.

A prospectus commonly provides investors with material information about mutual funds, stocks, bonds and other investments, such as a description of the company's business, financial statements, biographies of officers and directors, detailed information about their compensation, any litigation that is taking place, a list of material properties and any other material information. In the context of an individual securities offering, such as an initial public offering, a prospectus is distributed by underwriters or brokerages to potential investors.
