AI Summary

This bill amends the Securities Act of 1933 to expand the definition of "accredited investor" - individuals who meet certain wealth and income criteria that allow them to participate in certain investment opportunities that are not available to the general public. The key provisions include: 1) Increasing the net worth threshold for individuals to be considered accredited investors from $1 million to $1 million, adjusting for inflation every 5 years; 2) Adding new criteria for individuals to qualify as accredited investors based on income levels and professional expertise/licensing in the securities industry; and 3) Requiring the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to revise its regulations to align with these changes to the accredited investor definition.
