Late last week, the SEC finally approved crowdfunding rules as part of the NSBA-supported JOBS Act, which will allow small businesses to raise up to $1 million per year through crowdfunding transactions.
The Republican take-over of the Senate could have lasting effects on issues including access to capital, federal contracting reform, patents and cybersecurity.
On October 23, 2013, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued their proposed rules on crowdfunding, pursuant to Title III of the JOBS Act. The proposals seem overly complex and burdensome.
On Thursday, the House Small Business Subcommittee on Investigations, Oversight and Regulations is holding a hearing to examine the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC’s) delay in implementing the JOBS Act.
Tomorrow, NSBA Treasurer Jeff Van Winkle of Clark Hill, PLC in Grand Rapids, Michigan will testify before Congress on the importance of easing access to capital for small business as the Securities and Exchange Commission works to implement the NSBA-supported JOBS Act.
NSBA recently met with senior SEC officials regarding the implementation of the JOBS Act, urging them to use restraint and adhere closely to the intent of the law in crafting the new regulatory framework, specifically, to avoid imposing complex and costly compliance requirements for small firms seeking investment or looking to go public.
