Regulation CF has gained significant popularity as an exemption for raising capital from investors. Regulation CF allows general advertising of the securities offering and allows accredited and non-accredited investors to participate.
Once downside of Regulation CF is the old rules required launching your campaign on expensive and crowded SEC approved crowdfunding platforms. These platforms typically want 6-8% commissions, equity in your company, and they control your prospect data. Further, only a few clicks away are dozens if not hundreds of companies in your industry with competing investment opportunities.
In March of 2021 – the SEC made two major rules changes; (a) they took the annual CF limit to $5m and; (b) they now allow FINRA broker dealers to serve as your Reg CF intermediary.
By allowing FINRA broker dealers to serve as securities sales intermediaries – the SEC essentially opened the door to Reg CF offerings executing as “mini Reg A” offerings. The secret? Having a proper Regulation CF raise portal built and launched with a broker dealer to administer the raise.
