SEC proposes investor exam to widen access to private markets
Original: SEC proposes investor exam to expand private market access — here's how it could work
The US Securities and Exchange Commission has put forward a proposal that would require retail investors to pass an exam before gaining access to private market investments such as private equity and venture capital. The idea would replace or loosen current wealth-based accreditation rules, testing financial knowledge instead. Coverage so far focuses on how the exam could work and what it would mean for ordinary investors seeking higher-return opportunities.
Why now: The SEC's new proposal could reshape who is allowed to invest in private markets, a major shift from income and wealth thresholds.
