Private investments are long-term by nature. When you invest through Wealt, you should expect your capital to be locked up until the company has a liquidity event.
Why is the range so wide?
Exit timing is driven by the company, not by you. A startup might get acquired in 2 years - or take 10 years to IPO. Market conditions, company performance, and strategic decisions all influence the timeline.
Can you exit early?
In some cases, through a secondary sale. But this is not guaranteed; see our articles on secondary sales and ROFR for details.
When deciding how much to invest, assume the longest possible horizon. If a deal might take 3–7 years, plan for 7. You should never invest capital you might need within the lock-up period.
