With SEC poised to expand crowdfunding rules, it’s time for advisers to get up to speed

Investment crowdfunding is coming to the retail investor marketplace and financial advisers who are not up to speed could be missing an opportunity to provide valuable guidance to their clients.  “I think it’s a really big thing,” said Doug Ellenoff, a securities lawyer at Ellenoff Grossman and Schole. “I have every belief that in five years if we do this responsibly, we’ll be looking back at this like we looked back at the start of online trading.”
