On March 25, 2015, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued new rules that will enable private companies to raise as much as $50 million in a 12-month period through private offerings of securities exempt from the registration and reporting requirements associated with “going public.”
The new rules amend the existing Regulation A and are generally referred to as Regulation A+. The rules are in response to mandates created by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups "JOBS" Act which we previously summarized in our April 2012 Securities Law Update entitled, “JOBS Act Makes It Easier to Raise Capital.”
