Reg D

Regulation D (Reg D) is a set of rules established by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that governs how companies can raise investment funds without having to register their offerings with the SEC. It allows businesses to offer securities to a limited number of accredited investors and, in some cases, up to 35 non-accredited investors, while providing certain disclosures and protections. This regulation simplifies the process for companies seeking investment while maintaining investor protections, making it an efficient way to raise capital for startups and small businesses within specific limits.
