Investment Opportunity Expansion Act

The Investment Opportunity Expansion Act amends federal securities law to create a new criterion for individuals to qualify as "accredited investors." It allows an individual to meet the threshold if, for a single investment transaction, their total investment in private securities (without a public offering) does not exceed 10 percent of the greater of their net assets or annual income. This change would expand eligibility for private investment opportunities beyond traditional income or net worth requirements. The bill directly affects individuals seeking to invest in private securities and the financial institutions offering such investments.
