On 27 March 2019, the European Parliament adopted its position on the Commission's proposals for common rules for crowdfunding platforms across Europe. The Commission had initially published the original draft regulation (the "Crowdfunding Regulation"), which proposal is not intended to replace national regimes. The proposed Regulation will primarily 'scale up' crowdfunding services while further augmenting access to finance particularly for start-ups and SMEs. Another objective of the same is to bestow investors with all the necessary information on crowdfunding.
