    How might reducing audit requirements for crowdfunded companies between $100,000 and $250,000 affect investor protections versus access to capital for startups?

  2. 02

    Which small businesses would benefit most from higher crowdfunding thresholds, and what risks might emerge for investors in companies with less financial transparency?

  3. 03

    What evidence supports raising disclosure thresholds, and how would the SEC decide whether increasing the limit to $400,000 serves both small businesses and investor interests?
