☆ A debate raging in Washington DC over the definition of who qualifies to be an accredited investor could transform the way startups raise money

Lawmakers and federal regulators are contemplating changing the definition of "accredited investor." There's a philosophical debate raging in Washington that could transform the multitrillion-dollar capital markets and change the way startups raise money. The origins of the definition of "accredited investor" trace back to the Great Depression and the Securities Act of 1933. And since the Reg D exemption's creation, private markets have become the dominant way for most issuers to access capital markets. According to analysis from the Brookings Institution, in 2020, 13.85% of US households qualified as accredited investors, compared with just 1.8% in 1983.

Defaults on private loans, which have fallen steadily since the pandemic's height in 2020, are ticking up. Private credit, or private debt, are catch-all terms to describe privately negotiated loans outside the public debt markets. Private credit firms engage in what's known as direct lending, making these private loans to companies who turn to them instead of a traditional bank. Analysts and asset management executives say private debt has held up well in 2022 in the face of brutal stock and bond market volatility. 'Fighting for allocation'A challenge for private debt funds in the past decade has been a dearth of companies they can lend to.
☆ U.S. securities regulator says crypto events underscore industry risks
  + stars: | 2022-11-09 | by ( Chris Prentice | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +1 min
WASHINGTON, Nov 9 (Reuters) - The turmoil in the cryptocurrency industry of the last few days underscores the risks inherent in the industry as intermediaries handle so many core functions, the head of the top U.S. markets regulator said on Wednesday. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chair Gary Gensler used the events of the last few days - centered on concerns over the financial healthy of major cryptocurrency exchange FTX - to emphasize the risks of a crypto industry that has been operating outside of traditional financial markets' oversight. "I've been saying this for well over a year now in this job: come in, get registered, come within the securities laws," Gensler said during a Healthy Markets Association event. Gensler noted risks from the "commingling" of key intermediary functions in the cryptocurrency world, in which the same firms serve multiple roles, such as exchanges and market makers. The SEC, which is investigating FTX's handling of client funds, has ratcheted up scrutiny of the crypto industry under Democratic leadership.
