Market experts discuss how SEC Regulation A+ allows Main Street to invest in early-stage companies
NEW YORK, Dec. 7, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- PR Newswire, Vintage and BetterInvesting invites individual investors to two educational webinars about investing in "Mini-IPOs," the nickname given to the SEC Regulation A+ process companies can use to raise capital.
The new Regulation A+ went into effect in June of 2015 with the intent of reviving the smaller IPO market by allowing companies to accept funds from both accredited and non-accredited investors. This has provided a new option for companies to raise capital for growth.
DATE:
WEBINAR 1: Mini-IPOs: The New Alternative for Individual Investors
WEBINAR 2: Mini-IPOs: Mechanics and Safeguards for Investing
Pre-register here for both. Both webinars are free.
