Global-e Investments Ltd is a New Zealand based company, positioned to become a global leader in Internet finance and e-Commerce.

Since our incorporation in 1997, we have enlisted an international team of advisors, board members and employees including investment and e-Commerce industry leaders from Wall Street, Asia and New Zealand

Our Global-e Bond series, is establishing a unique global e-community for investors.

Global-e has pioneered a method of utilising a long-term bond structure to provide leverage to its bondholders through e-Commerce. Each bondholder will have three distinct ways they can realise returns through this structure:

  1. Assured capital return in 20 years
  2. Each bondholder has an option to acquire 300 shares in Global-e Investments, the e-Commerce company issuing the bonds
  3. Leverage the purchasing power of the eCommerce Private Community

And, each bondholder can potentially win from US$10,000 to US$10 million through daily prize draws held live on Global-e's Private bondholder website every day.

To summarise:

It is a simple formula for success.

Global-e Bonds

When an investor purchases a bond they get an option to acquire 300 shares in Global-e Investments. The price to exercise the option will be US$0.05 per share (US$15 in total). The option must be exercised between 1 August 2002 and 31 October 2002.

Given the nature of the business, the shares have the potential to be worth significantly more than this in the future. According to the New Zealand Herald dated 15 February 2000, in 1999 Internet IPOs created $702 billion in equity value, boosting the web’s total stock market value to $1.32 trillion. The average gain was 253% but over 500 ballooned more than 1000%.

The Global-e Private Community

All Bondholders will have member-only access to our web site – The Global-e Private Community.

Being part of the Global-e Private Community offers a number of key benefits:

Global-e will be seeking advice from bondholders about their interests and the content they would like to see on the site, which will help to develop these customised services for bondholders.

Minimum Subscription Amount

The minimum subscription amount is 25,000 bonds. Bonds are not issued until 25,000 have been sold. All funds received prior to this are held in trust with TOWER Trust until either 25,000 bonds are sold or until 7 July 2000 when Global-e will refund all money in the unlikely event that 25,000 bonds have not been sold.

Payment Options

Investors have three options to pay in US dollars:

Bank draft

Telegraphic transfer

Credit card

Custodial Service

TOWER Trust will provide a custodial service for bondholders if they wish to keep their bond in a safe place

The Prize Draws

It is simple to qualify…

The draws will be held live on the Internet at 6am New Zealand time, which will encourage large volumes of Bondholders to the web site, thereby helping to build a profitable e-Commerce company. Investors will be issued with a special access number, which will gain them entry to view the daily draws on web site.

The draws will start when 25,000 bonds have been sold and this will be no later than 7 July 2000.

Winners are selected at random through an electronic "Random Number Generator" system, known at Global-e as "Ranger". TOWER Trust will verify the validity of the prize draws.
