FINRA Licenses Netcapital as Broker-Dealer

The US regulator of brokerage firms and exchange markets, FINRA, licensed Netcapital as a broker-dealer to facilitate larger
fundraises while offering investors a broader spectrum of opportunities.

Private Securities and Business Placements

Netcapital Securities Inc., a subsidiary of Netcapital
Inc., can now engage in private securities and referral business placements.
This approval enables the company to support equity capital raises under
Regulation A (Reg A) and Regulation D (Reg D).

Beyond facilitating fundraises, the new license
enables Netcapital to syndicate deals with other broker-dealers, creating more
collaborative investment opportunities.

This development offers issuers access to
enhanced fundraising capabilities, particularly for companies pursuing
larger-scale equity raises. By aligning with other broker-dealers, Netcapital
can broaden the reach and depth of its deal syndications. Additionally, Netcapital Securities Inc. can now
charge fees tied to the capital raised under Reg A and Reg D, further
strengthening its financial model.

According to the company, this approval will provide investors with a wider array of private equity opportunities. Netcapital plans to partner with multiple broker-dealers to introduce a range of investment options and streamline access to private placements.

Expansion in the Private Markets

Besides this, Netcapital aims to democratize private
equity investment and streamline fundraising. The firm’s fintech platform
reportedly allows private companies to raise capital online. The addition of
broker-dealer operations also enables the company to improve its funding
solutions.

Expect ongoing updates as this story evolves.
