Lack of regulation in Equity Crowdfunding Sweden - practical exampleMichalGromek
In 2015, Crowdfunding in Sweden after leaving its niche from being somewhere in the corner of entrepreneurial finance, where it started in 2011, went mainstream.
Crowdfunding has still no legal definition in the Swedish regulations. Its regulation is allocated in different sections of the legislation, which has been created a long time before the FinTech
age. In the recent publication on Crowdfunding by the Swedish Financial Authorities (Finansinspektionen) it has been pointed out,
that under particular circumstances it is even unclear which public authorities should execute supervision on crowdfunding.
This presentation shows a bottom-up approach based of an imaginary entrepreneur case.

Current State of Crowdfunding in Europe - review 2016MichalGromek
An Overview of the Crowdfunding Industry in more than 25 Countries: Trends, Volumes & Regulation
The alternative finance industry is a vibrant industry that develops very quickly. Community shares, civic crowdfunding, real estate crowdfunding and marketplace lending are examples of the developments that take place in the industry. We didn’t include these kind of developments in this research, but we are sure that in future reports we can’t ignore these new phenomena. For now, it was a challenge enough to collect information about the four mainstream types of crowdfunding.
For this research we worked together with more than 30 experts in all the European countries and asked them to provide us with reports and data about the crowdfunding industry in their country and give us their insights and views on the industry. We also asked them to share their knowledge about existing and upcoming regulations. We want to emphasize that by no means we intent to give legal advice in this report.
