美国证监会SEC本周宣布了一套临时性法规,减少了特定类型的小型初创公司众筹所受的约束,主要针对家庭式连锁店、零售店等,目前暂定在8月31日前有效。主要调整之一为:特定企业筹集10.7万到25万美元之间的资金时,不需要外部审计师审查财务报表。但是,它们仍需遵循SEC提供的一长串“do's and don'ts"条例,比如向投资者解释其对这种“救济”资金的财务依赖性。
A specific type of small startup has a window to raise crowdfunding in a somewhat less regulated way than normally required in the U.S., based on a temporary set of rule changes by the Securities and Exchange Commission announced this week. The new terms are generally geared towards the millions of mom-and-pop businesses and set to expire by August 31. source
