10. What happens if the startup's funding target is not met?
When a firm accomplishes its funding target, we transfer the money received from the investor to the startup’s account and issue the share certificate in the investor’s name.
On the other hand, failure to meet a startup’s goal-set financial target makes it unlikely that they will be able to implement their suggested business strategy. Therefore, the money raised are repaid in order to safeguard the investor’s money.
Therefore, a startup either receives 100% of the capital when it meets its funding objective or nothing at all when it doesn’t.
