The flow-through factor: investors interested in the high-risk, high-reward sector of natural resources may find some appeal in a flow-through share arrangement

Article Abstract:

Flow-through share arrangements offer twin opportunities to investors, namely, the chance to invest in high-risk, high-reward natural resource exploration and development, and the ability to reduce such risk through a lower after-tax cost. Flow-through shares refer to a share issued by a principal business corporation (PBC) to an investor according to a written agreement wherein the PBC agrees to incur exploration and development expenses within 24 months and to 'renounce' these to the investor. They are a good investment medium as long as shareholders are able to recover their investments and realize a profit.
