Exit Routes & Buybacks
An unlisted holding exits through a buyback, a secondary transfer or a future listing. Cambridge Wealth sets out the timing and conditions attached to each route.
Unlisted shares are not traded on an exchange, so there is no daily price and no order book to sell into. A holding is usually valued from the last funding round, which can be months or years old, and an exit depends on a buyback, a secondary sale or an eventual listing. That makes the exit route the most important detail and the one most often left vague. Cambridge Wealth provides information on the unlisted holdings available, including how each is valued and what exit options exist.
Research-led support for evaluating, understanding, and integrating unlisted equity within broader wealth strategies.

Unlisted values often reflect the last funding round, not a current price. Cambridge Wealth explains how each holding is valued.
Unlisted share gains are taxed on holding period and cost basis. Cambridge Wealth offers taxation guidance and keeps records ready for your CA.
An unlisted holding has no exchange behind it, so selling depends on someone choosing to buy: a company buyback, a secondary transfer to another investor, or a listing at some future date. Each route has different timing and different conditions attached. The valuation on a statement usually reflects the last funding round rather than what a buyer would pay today. That figure can sit unchanged for a long time, then move sharply when a transaction finally happens. The practical problem is that investors weigh the entry valuation carefully and the exit route barely at all. Cambridge Wealth sets out the valuation basis, lock-in terms and available exit routes for each holding, alongside the rest of your portfolio.
