Escrow Details
What is a Escrow?
An account escrow is community Investment pledge or “contribution” as a stock planning tool for MADIBA sponsored community investment programs or projects, where community program returns program profit income to residents weekly, monthly, or annually.
The Escrow gives ongoing value and loyalty in community investing by shifting from one-time investment to consistent increase in revenue. This means that the community investment provides resident investors the opportunity, to invest residually and over a period of time within community development programs and projects.
This structure guarantees that residential investors will gain ownership of the stock, and once community programs generate a profit, all residential investors will receive an agreed-upon profit.
Real World Community Investing
The Escrow holds actual shares given to residents as investors. and as Investors they receive a real return on investment (ROI), which may be subject to a vesting period and taxation. Once the shares are vested—meaning they have been earned or fully acquired—the investor owns them outright and can either sell them or hold them as part of their investment portfolio.
How Does it Work?
Members will elect MADIBA as their community investment authority by registering with MADIBA open an account top up the escrow wallet. If memebr is a issuer they can purchasing a Subscription plan and becoming a community investment developer and gain online community members and program or project investors; which they will receive actual shares of stock, which may be subject to a vesting period. When the programs generate a profit, shareholders are paid dividends as part of their vested or invested under the following:
- Mandatory Membership: Buying a home inside an MADIBA district automatically makes you a member. You cannot choose to opt out.
- Governing Documents: Rules are defined by MADIBA Ordinance, bylaws, and articles of incorporation.
- Board of Directors: An elected group of residents runs MADIBA district, handles budgets, and manages policy decisions (or hires a property management company)
Issuing Stock
Here is how the escrow help community programs to use post development to fund and own early-stage startups:
Step 1: Defining the “Community Shares”
Instead of a faceless global stock market, the community startup defines its shares based on local tangible assets or initial production milestones.
For Example:
- A local program startup needs $50,000 to buy its equipment and first batch of products.
- The startup issues 500 Community Shares priced at $35 per subscription.
- Anyone in the neighborhood can buy in, meaning everyday people provide the raw capital to get the business off the ground.
Step 2: The Profit-Sharing Mechanism
The community program structures the investment as a Revenue-Share Note or Local Dividend:
- The Retail Sale: The startup program sells its product or service to resident or non resident consumers.
- The Community Payout: Every quarter, a set percentage of gross retail sales (e.g., 5% of every unit sold) is set aside.
- Investor Reward: That cash pool is distributed back to the community investors based on how many shares they own, giving them a direct return on local economic activity.
Step 3: Governance and True Ownership
Because this is an equity program, everyday investors aren’t just giving a donation; they get a seat at the table.
- Voting Rights: Each community member gets a vote on major decisions, like opening a second location or hiring a manager.
- The Resale (Principal Return): If the community program grows and eventually wants to buy back the community’s shares to go completely private, or if another investor wants to buy out the neighborhood, your shares are resold at their new, increased value.
Return On Investment
Return on Investment (ROI) funds will be provided only when share are sold back to the community program or project after the overal escrow term.
For example if a resident members maintain a $3500 Escrow with a .4% Yield the member will recevie $350 Annually and qualify for financial assistant up to 2% of their escrow holding.
Initial Contribution
The Participant shall establish the escrow with an initial contribution of $35 and shall be recorded in Master Escrow bank account with certification of contribution shall be recorded in the investing member MADIBA account Ledger.
The ledger shall include, as applicable:
- Participant ID;
- contribution date;
- contribution amount;
- transaction reference;
- reserve maturity date;
- reserve status;
- investment allocation;
- collateral status; and
- release status.
Each contribution shall be treated as a separate reserve lot unless otherwise provided by the Program.
Each reserve lot shall receive its own:
- contribution date;
- twelve-month reserve period;
- maturity date;
- eligible reserve amount;
- collateral status; and
- release status.
Each contribution shall generally remain within the reserve structure for twelve months from the applicable contribution date.
For administrative purposes:
Reserve Maturity Date = Contribution Date + Applicable Twelve-Month Period
- Each Investment use a rolling maturity schedule.
- Accordingly, a Participant escrow fluctuat and does not have one single annual maturity date.
- Each monthly escrow contribution agreement has its own maturity date.
Investment Example
- A member contributes $350 total
- Total escrow contributions after twelve months: $420 x 20% = $504
