Dear Questioner,

Thank you for contacting me.

Since you are not directly participating, you shall have an agreement with your friend which specifies the purpose of pooling the investment structure, corresponding shares and return sharing, the liability of loss if any, the responsibility of managing funds... etc.

Please feel free to contact me if you need any assistance.

Thank you.

Regards,
