Capital Lift – Certification of Knowledge Form (For Semi-Qualified Investors*)

This form is intended for individuals who wish to qualify as *Semi-qualified investors or Investor with Proven Knowledge or Experience (view disclaimer)


Please read the definitions and disclaimers below carefully and answer the questions thuthfully and to the best of your abilities.

For the purposes of Act No. 240/2013 Coll., an investor may qualify as a qualified investor either by virtue of their professional or institutional status or by meeting the conditions set out in Section 272 of the Act, including the minimum investment amount and a written declaration of understanding of investment risks. Qualification is therefore not determined solely by the amount invested.


1. Legal bases for Qualified Investor status (ZISIF)

Under Act No. 240/2013 Coll. (ZISIF), an investor may qualify as a qualified investor based on any of the following legal bases:


A. Professional / institutional status (automatic qualification)

Certain entities are considered qualified investors by law, regardless of investment amount, due to their nature, regulatory status, or professional activity.


These include, in particular:

  • banks, credit institutions, and investment firms;

  • insurance and reinsurance companies;

  • pension companies and pension funds;

  • management companies and investment funds;

  • the Czech National Bank, central banks, and supranational institutions;

  • states and public authorities managing public debt;

  • large corporate entities meeting professional criteria set out in financial market regulations.

For these entities, no minimum investment amount is required to qualify as a qualified investor.


B. Elective qualification based on investment amount (§ 272 ZISIF)

Natural persons or legal entities that do not fall into the professional categories above may qualify as qualified investors if they:

  • make a written declaration acknowledging investment risks; and

  • meet one of the statutory investment thresholds:

    • EUR 125,000, or

    • CZK 1,000,000 with a written appropriateness assessment by the manager or administrator.

This is the route most commonly used for individuals and private companies.


Although no statutory minimum investment amount applies to investors admitted solely under Section 15 of Act No. 240/2013 Coll., Capital Lift has adopted a voluntary minimum investment threshold for semi-qualified investors as an internal risk-mitigation measure in order to ensure that investments are made only by investors capable of bearing the economic risks of the investment and to prevent de-facto retail distribution.

Section 15 Investor (Non-Qualified Investor) Declaration

For the purposes of Section 15 of Act No. 240/2013 Coll., on Management Companies and Investment Funds, I hereby declare that I do not meet the statutory definition of a qualified investor pursuant to Section 272 of the Act. Nevertheless, I confirm that:

  • I possess sufficient knowledge, experience, and understanding to assess the suitability of the investment and to understand the risks associated with investing in Capital Lift;

  • I have been provided with all relevant information necessary to make an informed investment decision;

  • the investment is made on the basis of an individual assessment conducted by the Capital Lift manager or distributor, and not as a public offering.

I acknowledge and expressly agree that:

  • the investment fund is operated under Section 15 of the Act and is not intended for retail investors;

  • the investment is not subject to the same level of supervision, disclosure, or investor protection as investments offered to the general public;

  • no statutory guarantee or protection scheme applies to this investment; and

  • I may lose part or all of the invested capital.

I further acknowledge that any minimum investment amount applicable to my investment arises from Capital Lift’s internal rules and suitability assessment, and not from an explicit statutory minimum set out in Section 15 of the Act.
