Statement At Open Meeting On Facilitating Capital Formation And Expanding Investment Opportunities By Improving Access To Capital In Private Markets, SEC Commissioner Elad L. Roisman, Nov. 2, 2020

Date 02/11/2020

Today, the SEC staff has put before us a recommendation to adopt several rule amendments that aim to facilitate capital formation, particularly for small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs across the United States. This recommendation is the product of extensive study and outreach on the part of the Commission. This has been a topic of interest to the Commission for many years, and the Commission put forth a comprehensive concept release in June 2019.[1] Further informed by this release and commenters’ responses and outreach, the Commission proposed amendments to our rules in March 2020.[2] In total, we have received over 300 comment letters and met with many issuers, investors, crowdfunding portals, as well as many other advocates and groups on improving the functioning of our markets for investors and companies. The amendments we are considering today would streamline and tailor the exempt offering framework for businesses seeking to raise capital while preserving investor protections. For these reasons, I am supportive of the changes.

Statement At Open Meeting On Facilitating Capital Formation And Expanding Investment Opportunities By Improving Access To Capital In Private Markets, SEC Commissioner Hester M. Peirce, Nov. 2, 2020

Date 02/11/2020

Thank you, Mr. Chairman, and thank you to Bill, John, and S.P for the overview of the recommendation. Conversation at the Commission’s conference on interconnectedness last week turned in a direction that helps to explain why what we are doing today is so important. Specifically highlighted was the need for the creation of “engines of capital accumulation.” These engines enable one generation to pass down wealth to the next and enable communities to grow and prosper. Small businesses are engines of capital accumulation. Unfortunately, many small businesses that could be successful struggle to find the capital they need to create wealth. We have to do a better job getting capital to those businesses, and that is what today’s amendments are all about.
