Direct Participation Program (or Direct Participation Plan, abbreviated DPP) is a financial security which enables investors to participate in a business venture's cash flow and taxation benefits. Chiefly used in the past as a tax shelter, recent tax regulations have reduced its effectiveness in this respect.

DPP securities are traded on the OTC Bulletin Board since May 1997.
