It is thought to be more efficient than IPOs and allows non-accredited investors to participate in upcoming business opportunities much more easily.<\/p>\n<p>When looked at more closely, we can see that Reg A+ serves as the perfect pathway for small to medium-sized businesses to raise money within the US. It also provides additional benefits such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Promotes retail investor participation<\/li>\n<li>Helps maximize marketing opportunities to investors.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>While some might say that Reg A+ is extremely bound and limited in its approach, others will be interested to learn that start-ups have raised over $600 million since October 2017, through the use of this regulatory scheme.<\/p>\n<h2>Reg A+ cannot replace ICOs<\/h2>\n<p>Even though Reg A+ might look an attractive business opportunity to some, one has to bear in mind that it still does not provide business owners with the same freedom as that of an unregulated ICO market.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_31878\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-31878\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-31878\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/switzerland-push-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/switzerland-push-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/switzerland-push-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/switzerland-push.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-31878\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Related Story: &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/swiss-financial-authorities-treat-icos-securities\/\">Swiss Financial Authorities to Treat ICOs As Securities<\/a>&#8220;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>For starters, when using Reg A+ regulations, companies are forced to work through SEC approved exchanges exclusively.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to this, Reg A+ also requires AML background checks on each and every investor separately, thereby drastically increasing overall maintenance and overhead costs.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, to make use of Reg A+, companies need to issue something called \u201cOffering Circulars\u201d to their prospective buyers.<\/p>\n<p>These documents are quite similar to white papers, but require a vast array of specific details, failing which, a company may not be eligible to raise money.<\/p>\n<h2>Tier System<\/h2>\n<p>At this point, it should also be mentioned that Reg A+ offerings come in two forms:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Tier 1: <\/b>this is a less stringent Reg A+ pathway that does not impose strict regulatory requirements.
