On 13 October 2021, the Swedish Parliament adopted a new law
with supplementary provisions to the EU Regulation on European
Crowdfunding Service Providers (ECSP) for business.
The framework applies to providers of crowdfunding platforms
where investors are matched with project owners who seek funding.
It also sets out certain responsibilities for project owners. The
rules i.a. seek to harmonize the previously fragmented regulation
of crowdfunding services within the EU, open up for an efficient
and Union-wide market for crowdfunding and guarantee good investor
protection. This new article provides an overview of:
- rule applicability (who, what and when);
- organisational and operational requirements and investor
protection;
- permit applications, and;
- supervision and sanctions.
