It’s finally here. Four years after the JOBS Act of 2012 was signed into law which required the SEC to adopt rules permitting equity crowdfunding, the SEC’s final rules titled “Regulation Crowdfunding” have gone effective.
Effective May 16, 2016, U.S. companies may now offer and sell shares of stock and other securities via crowdfunding and qualify for an exemption from securities registration requirements under Section 4(a)(6) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
I’m still wading through the SEC’s 685-page final rule release adopting Regulation Crowdfunding, which is available here. I plan to blog about this matter further in the coming days, but in the meantime, you can read “Regulation Crowdfunding: A Small Entity Compliance Guide for Issuers” written by the SEC, which is available here.
