Early Closing

Early Offer’s Closing #

Early closing is allowed but must be disclosed in the offering materials. If the offering is closed early, the platform must notify investors promptly and ensure all investments made up to that point are processed. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires platforms to update the offering status in the official filings.

Regulatory Compliance:

  • SEC Regulation A (Rule 253) requires issuers to update offering circulars and notify investors.
  • Reg CF Rule 301 requires platforms to notify investors and update the - Form C if an offering closes early.
  • For Reg D, issuers must notify investors of material changes, including early closure ( More on SEC Reg D).

Investor Notification & Fund Processing #

The Admin records the reason for early closing into the offer’s entity. The platform marks the offer as “Closed Early” and sends a legally-required email explaining the early closure and next steps. Then, the usual closing process starts.

Regulatory Compliance:

  • SEC Rule 10b-10 requires investment confirmation and disclosure of material changes ( More on SEC Rule 10b-10).
  • If escrow is used, SEC Rule 15c2-4 ensures that all investor funds are processed and returned if necessary ( More on SEC Rule 15c2-4).
  • Reg CF platforms must allow investors to withdraw before the early closing takes effect.
