The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) convened at a meeting today, 30 October 2015 and voted YES to the long awaited final law of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups (JOBS) Act on equity crowdfunding. Three Commissioners of the SEC – Chair White, Stein and Piwowar – voted yes to the equity crowdfunding law. The Commission voted yes to: 1) Title III of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, and 2) Proposed amendments to Securities Act Rule 147 and Rule 504.

This rule opens the floodgates to online capital raising by removing the barrier that had allowed only the accredited investors to participate in online investments. The SEC made it possible for individuals to solicit for their projects when it approved Titles II and IV on 13 September 2013 and 25 March 2015, respectively, but these rules had excluded non-accredited investors.

With the adoption of the rules governing Title III, the amount of money that is possible to be raised across investment schemes will be significantly increased, especially in the real estate crowdfunding sector where there has been significant growth in recent times.

In December 2012, David Drake, Chairman of LDJ Capital, The Soho Loft Media Group and Victoria Global, predicted that this equity crowdfunding law will take more than 3 years before it is approved. Now that the United States approved the equity crowdfunding law of the JOBS Act, it becomes the second nation after Italy, with a specific crowdfunding law.
