Is it appropriate, or even legal, to disclose your investors' ROI in your company?


If the answer is 15x and it just happened, how upset is the investor really going to get?


Perhaps the culture around this is changing in the US, but I take financial privacy -very- seriously. The kickbacks an investor gets from an investment should be implicitly private.


Presumably if one has permission it's both appropriate and legal.


Both Red Gate and the angel investor were asked for permission before these articles were published.
