What is the final meeting called before the end of the cooling-off period?

The final meeting before the end of the cooling-off period is called a due diligence meeting. This meeting is crucial for underwriters and the issuing company to ensure that all necessary disclosures have been made and that the registration statement is accurate and complete. During this meeting, key details regarding the offering, such as financial projections, risks, and overall business model, are reviewed to confirm that the underwriting team fully understands the investment being marketed to potential investors. This diligence process is imperative to mitigate liability and to ensure compliance with regulatory standards before the securities are officially offered to the public.
