Show full summary
  • Fund managers and private funds: Would let entities relying on Section 3(c)(1) accept up to 500 investors instead of 250 and hold up to $50 million instead of $10 million while still using the exemption.
  • Businesses seeking private capital: Broadens the exemption to larger pools and bigger asset bases, which could let more entities access private funds that rely on this rule.
  • Investors: More people could become holders in funds that use Section 3(c)(1), expanding who can participate in certain private offerings.

Higher private fund exemption limits

If enacted, private funds with $50 million or less in assets and 500 or fewer holders would be eligible for the Section 3(c)(1) exemption from registration. The bill would raise the asset test from $10 million to $50 million and increase the holder limit from 250 to 500. Fund managers and prospective investors who were previously ineligible would likely face lower federal registration and compliance costs. The change would take effect upon enactment.
