What is participatory financing (crowdfunding)?
Crowdfunding allows any individual to invest in a project by contributing the amount of their choice, in exchange for a return. At Huudi, this return is financial: it consists of royalties. Specifically, you receive a quarterly percentage of the profit generated by the project you selected, proportional to your investment amount. By investing, you acquire a contractual right to receive profits (called royalty). This right can, from a date specified in the contract, be resold to Huudi. If profits are insufficient (according to a threshold defined in the contract), the company commits to reimbursing your entire capital within 6 months after the guarantee is activated. This investment model is accessible, transparent, and non-speculative, contributing to ethical, sustainable, and inclusive finance.
