Understand Regulation A+ and other alternative funding methods
Regulation A+ and Other Alternatives to a Traditional IPO delves into
the details of the new SEC rules under the JOBS Act of 2012 to examine
the benefits and pitfalls for entrepreneurs and investors. Written by
the 'Godfather of Reg A+, ' this book breaks down the complex details of
Regulation A+ and other alternative funding methods to help small
businesses determine how best to go public and raise capital. A
traditional IPO comes with barriers that can be insurmountable for a
small company seeking to enter the public markets; thus far, reverse
mergers have provided a challenging 'back door' to the market, but
Regulation A+ re-opens the front door to allow small cap companies to
raise capital while keeping offering and compliance costs manageable in
a way not possible with a traditional IPO. More complex than simple
crowdfunding, yet just as accessible by all investors, Regulation A+ is
a step up for entrepreneurs at any stage wanting to go public where Wall
