SUMMARY DESCRIPTION:
On July 10, 2013, the SEC adopted long-awaited amendments to Rule 506 of Regulation D under the JOBS Act of 2012, lifting the 80-year ban on general solicitations of unregistered securities offerings. Previously prohibited from publicly soliciting investors in private (unregistered) securities offerings, companies were relegated to soliciting investors with whom they had a “preexisting relationship.” Under the new rules, companies may now publicly solicit “accredited” investors in offerings exempt from SEC registration under Rule 506 of Regulation D. Many believe this rule change to be of greater significance than even the JOBS Act’s Crowdfunding exemption.
AUDIENCE:
Business owners, C-level managers, board members, venture and private equity investors, attorneys, consultants, accountants, and other advisors to companies and shareholders.
