AI-Generated Summary

Updated January 20, 2026 at 6:16 AM UTC

The Investment Opportunity Expansion Act amends the Securities Act of 1933 to broaden who can be considered an accredited investor. It adds a new qualification based on a percentage of an individual’s net assets or annual income, allowing more people to invest in private securities. The changes affect individual investors and the firms that rely on accredited‑investor status for private offerings.

Key Provisions

  • Redesignates existing subparagraphs (i) and (ii) as (A) and (B) and updates their wording for clarity
  • Adds a new subparagraph (C) that permits an individual to qualify as an accredited investor if their total investment in non‑public securities does not exceed 10% of the greater of their net assets or annual income
