Bill > HR3383

This bill, known as the Incentivizing New Ventures and Economic Strength Through Capital Formation Act of 2025 (or IN-VEST Act of 2025), is a comprehensive piece of legislation aimed at expanding access to capital for small businesses and increasing investment opportunities. The bill includes multiple provisions that modify existing securities laws, such as expanding the definition of an "accredited investor" to include individuals who pass a financial competency exam, creating a Senior Investor Taskforce to protect older investors from financial exploitation, and allowing closed-end investment companies to invest more freely in private funds. The bill also makes several changes to help small businesses and emerging companies access capital more easily, including raising crowdfunding limits, allowing confidential draft registration statements for initial public offerings, and reducing financial reporting requirements for emerging growth companies. Additionally, the legislation requires studies on various financial topics like initial public offering costs and the impact of investment regulations on small businesses, with the goal of potentially making future regulatory adjustments to support economic growth and investment opportunities.
