Title III of the JOBS Act

Title III of the JOBS Act, also known as the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, allows small companies to raise capital from a larger number of investors through online platforms called crowdfunding. It simplifies rules for issuing securities to non-accredited investors, enabling everyday people to invest in startups or small businesses more easily. This democratizes investing, helping smaller companies access funding, but also involves limits on how much individuals can invest based on income and net worth to protect investors. Overall, it expands access to investment opportunities while maintaining certain safeguards.
