Book excerpt: Written by an industry pioneer who has hands-on experience in the brave new world of peer-to-peer lending and equity crowdfunding, this book serves as a resource for investors and entrepreneurs alike and investigates how these alternative mechanisms will increase the financial and operational capacity of borrowers, lenders, buyers, and sellers in the private markets. More than 60 governments across the globe have established financial inclusion as a policy priority and are vying for access to and use of financial services by households and firms to boost economic growth. A thought leader on securities-based crowdfunding, author Kim Wales explores how women and the millennial generation, the world's largest groups of people, can influence "crowd" direct investment, economic freedom, and economic growth. The book provides building blocks to instruct investors and entrepreneurs about how to leverage social networks and supplies tools to help retail investors--"the crowd"--to understand the language, risks, and rewards of this type of investment. Providing an indispensable resource for investors and entrepreneurs, Peer-to-Peer Lending and Equity Crowdfunding summarizes past theory as well as current schools of thought related to capital formation and economic growth, explains why creating a secondary market for private placement offerings is essential to stimulating market liquidity, and documents how public-private partnerships using digital finance will enhance financial inclusion and positively impact investing. The book not only describes how crowdfunding works but also explains investment approaches, secondary markets, governance and compliance, transparency, and risk models that are necessary for investors to make informed decisions.

This book was released on 2022-08-03 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The revolution in financial technology (FinTech) has created many advancements in the lending and investment space across the world. Law and Practice of Crowdfunding and Peer-to-Peer Lending in Australia, China, and Japan is a timely publication as FinTech grows up and moved into the mainstream of finance in the last decade. Financial services is a highly regulated industry as it is the lifeblood of a modern economy. Pelma Rajapakse, Hatsuru Morita, and Yinxu Huang have done very solid work blazing a new trail in what is a new industry and how to regulate it properly instead of stifling innovation. They have carried out a deep exploration and a thorough compilation of research that will bring everyone up to date on what Australia, China, and Japan are planning and doing in the field of crowdfunding and peer-to-peer lending. In addition to peer-to-peer lending, the book focuses on laws and practices related to Central Bank digital currencies, cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, and Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs) which is very meaningful and forward-looking. The authors presented their thoughts in such clarity that, even those who lack familiarity with Asia-Pacific, will see how FinTech was growing in various ways driven by different factors. For example, peer-to-peer lending in Japan is mostly for small and medium enterprises. It was popular in China but cracked down by the authorities for a few years. It provides an alternative fundraising channel for the capital market in Australia. We also see a set of regulatory approaches among jurisdictions. Some countries draft new regulations, while others amend existing laws. The mechanism of the regulatory sandbox was introduced. As we know, one size does not fit all. What kind of best practices or lessons learned can we apply to our own jurisdiction? This book covers all available answers to date. This volume speaks highly of the quality and foresight of Pelma Rajapakse and her co-authors.

This book was released on 2020 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper intends to evaluate the modern-day concepts of public fund raising under the aegis of 'peer-to-peer lending' and 'equity-based crowdfunding' and to highlight their importance in the current world market scenario. It traces the evolution of crowd funding and highlights its practical functioning with noteworthy illustrations and statistical analysis. This paper intends to address the dire need for regulation of these activities, by bringing to light the deficiencies and lacunae in the extant laws and suggested solutions thereto. In furtherance of the said objective, a double faceted approach is taken. First, the paper examines the parallel international practices of such regulations in the United States of America, United Kingdom, China, France, New Zealand, Korea etc. and then it evaluates extant Indian laws. The paper has also dissected the attempts made by regulatory bodies in India, such as the Reserve Bank of India's Non-Banking Financial Company - Peer to Peer Lending Platform (Reserve Bank) Directions, 2017 and the Securities and exchange Board of India's Consultation Paper on Crowdfunding in India, 2014 which aim to regulate these activities. The paper recognizes the dire need for a meticulous regulation of equity-based crowdfunding and for this purpose concludes with suggestions. The paper highlights the need for introduction of interest cap on peer-to-peer lending, introduction of a 'cooling-off' period for investments by retail investors in Equity crowdfunding, additions to investor education and risk undertaking by investors, strengthening suggested valuation standards etc.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Raising funds from public investors through equity crowdfunding and peer-to-peer lending was legalised in New Zealand in April 2014. The following year saw the registration of six new financial service providers offering financial crowdfunding services, mainly in equity crowdfunding. With only one peer-to-peer lender operating there is still a lot of room for that market to develop, in particular through the introduction of alternative pricing models, larger loans and business lending. While there are five registered platforms equity crowdfunding is currently dominated by two, The Snowball Effect and Pledgeme, each serving distinct market segments. However, if Australia adopts similar rules it will allow crowdfunding platforms targeting both markets an opportunity to take advantage of a larger crowd, changing the competitive environment.

A unique feature of this book is that it discusses Japan’s crowdfunding approach, which is somewhat different from that of the Western countries, by highlighting a specific crowdfunding platform (Music Securities) and a crowdfund-backed firm (SABAR restaurant). Further, it explores the suitability of Japan’s crowdfunding approach for addressing the financial needs of SMEs in developing countries,using Bangladesh as a representative case. Finally, the book identifies some lessons learned from crowd funding so as to advance research into this phenomenon, and to make it efficient and sustainable. As such, the book will benefit novices, academics, researchers, and policymakers interested in crowdfunding technology.
