Date 26/08/2020

The accredited investor definition is the single most important investor protection in the private market. Today’s amendments purport to “update” that definition while leaving in place 38-year old wealth thresholds, declining to index the thresholds to inflation, and declining to provide economic analysis to show how the failure to index will affect American investors—the bulk of whom are seniors—going forward.

Date 26/08/2020

Today, the Commission adopted final rules to modernize and add much needed flexibility to the definition of “accredited investor” by adding new categories of qualifying individuals and entities that have demonstrated financial sophistication such that they should not be excluded from the very large, multifaceted and important private capital markets. The private capital markets are important to investors and issuers of various types, as well as our economy more generally.

It also plays an important role in other state and federal securities law contexts.

Date 26/08/2020

Today’s cautious expansion of the accredited investor definition to include additional categories of natural persons and entities is a step in the right direction.

SEC Modernizes The Accredited Investor Definition

Date 26/08/2020
