Crowdrealestate receives European licence

Posted on 26-04-2024 by D. Staal

The Financial Markets Authority (AFM) has granted Crowdrealestate the European license to conduct crowdfunding activities. This license represents a significant advancement in crowdfunding regulation and strengthens Crowdrealestate's market position, enabling us to further expand our involvement in developing landmark real estate projects.

Enhanced Investor Protection

The European Crowdfunding Service Providers Regulation (ECSPR) has introduced a higher level of protection for investors. This strict regulation ensures that all crowdfunding platforms must adhere to requirements for transparency, risk management, and financial stability, contributing to a safer investment environment and the professionalization of the crowdfunding market. Compliance with European standards ensures uniformity in quality and reliability, which is essential for the continued growth and stability of this funding method.

Support for All Investors

The regulations offer specific benefits for both experienced and inexperienced investors. Inexperienced investors gain access to more information to make informed decisions and have a four-day reflection period after their investment. Experienced investors can participate in crowdfunding projects without limit within the regulatory frameworks.

Integration with Payment Service Provider

With the acquisition of the new European license, Crowdrealestate has partnered with Online Payment Platform (OPP). This collaboration enhances payment services and introduces a new verification and onboarding process for users, increasing the transparency and security of transactions.

Development of New Propositions

The license allows Crowdrealestate to launch new crowdfunding projects that comply with European regulations. In the future, Crowdrealestate plans to expand its investment product offerings to include the issuance of securities alongside loan-based crowdfunding, providing more opportunities for investors and contributing to the platform's growth.
