Equity Crowdfunding: All Regulated but Not Equal Garry A. Gabison* This Article describes how different countries have approached eq- uity crowdfunding. It focuses on countries or regulatory authorities that either expressed their awareness of the phenomenon but decided to adopt a holding pattern (monitoring and investigating) or new laws and regulations. Countries like Australia have opted to reaffirm how their current set of regulations applies to crowdfunding whereas others like the United States, Italy, the United Kingdom, and France have elected to create new exemptions in an effort to facilitate equity crowdfunding. This Article compares how each country decided to regulate the different participantsin the crowdfunding process. While the results of these various efforts are still mostly unseen, this Article takes an early look at the regulatory impact using one U.K. based platform as an example of how regulations can boost investment.

    Private Capital Group Private Placement Activity Chris Hastings | [email protected] | 917-621-3750 1/22/2018 – 1/26/2018 (Transactions in excess of $20 million) Trends & Commentary . This week, 10 U.S. private placement deals between $20 million and $50 million closed, accounting for $279 million in total proceeds, compared to last week’s 11 U.S. deals leading to $372 million in total proceeds. This week also had 7 U.S. deals between $50 million and $100 million yielding $475 million, compared to last week’s 3 deals resulting in $168 million in total proceeds. A growing number of deals with companies from China have been blocked by the U.S. government, including Ant Financial’s bid for MoneyGram and more recently, HNA Group’s bids for SkyBridge Capital and Glencore. Primary Data, a data virtualization startup, is shutting down after raising $40 million in Series C funding in 2017, and nearly $90 million in total funding to date from Accel Partners, Battery Ventures and Lightspeed Venture Partners, among others. Despite having industry experts such as Steve Wozniak and Fusion.io’s co-founders David Flynn and Rick White, the Company is being shut down reportedly due to heavy operating losses. Sapphire Ventures has promoted Rajeev Dham, Kevin Diestel and Anders Ranum to Partner. The Company also promoted Winter Mead to Principal. Snowflake, a cloud-based data storage platform, has become the first unicorn of 2018 after being valued at $1.5 billion in its Series E round from ICONIQ Capital and Altimeter Capital. SoundHound, a developer of sound recognition and voice search technologies, is following suit with its Series D1 round projected to close at the end of January.
