About Rise Companies Corp.

Rise Companies Corp. (“Rise,” “Rise Companies,” “we,” “our,” the “Company,” and “us”) is a financial technology company that owns and operates a leading web-based and mobile application alternative asset investment platform, located at www.fundrise.com (the “Fundrise Platform”). We believe technology-powered investment management is the future of investing in real estate and other alternative asset classes. Enabled by our proprietary technology, we leverage data and technology to lower the operating cost and improve the selection and performance of our investments. Through a vertically integrated infrastructure that automates the traditional processes of investment management and alternative asset investing, the Company aggregates investments from thousands of individuals to create the scale of an institutional investor on a single digital backbone and drastically lowers the marginal cost of each additional investor. Individuals can invest through the Fundrise Platform at ultra-low costs for what we believe is a superior web-based and mobile application experience. Investors use the Fundrise Platform to potentially earn attractive risk-adjusted returns from real estate and other alternative asset classes that have generally been closed to many investors.
