Bill 118 s 3710, also known as the Regulation A+ Improvement Act of 2024, aims to make changes to the Regulation A+ securities offering process in order to improve access to capital for small and medium-sized businesses. The bill was introduced in the Senate on March 15, 2024.
One of the key provisions of the bill is to increase the maximum offering amount for Regulation A+ offerings from $50 million to $75 million. This change is intended to provide businesses with more flexibility in raising capital through Regulation A+ offerings.
Additionally, the bill seeks to streamline the filing and review process for Regulation A+ offerings by allowing issuers to submit their offering documents electronically. This is expected to reduce the time and cost associated with the filing process, making it easier for businesses to access capital through Regulation A+ offerings.
The Regulation A+ Improvement Act of 2024 also includes provisions to expand the eligibility criteria for Regulation A+ offerings to include reporting companies that are current in their reporting obligations. This change is aimed at providing more opportunities for established companies to raise capital through Regulation A+ offerings.
Overall, the bill is designed to make it easier for small and medium-sized businesses to access capital through Regulation A+ offerings by increasing the maximum offering amount, streamlining the filing process, and expanding eligibility criteria. If passed, the Regulation A+ Improvement Act of 2024 could have a positive impact on the ability of businesses to raise capital and grow their operations.
