About us
The JOBS Act (passed in 2012 and enacted in 2016) allows all Americans to invest in startups, which was previously limited to only the wealthy elite. Now, thousands of everyday investors put millions of dollars into startups every year. Despite that, there is still no research and analytics solutions similar to the public market (e.g., MorningsStar, Bloomberg, SeekingAlpha, The Motley Fool) to empower individuals to make informed investment decisions. KingsCrowd aims to empower everyone to invest in startups confidently through a suite of products including research, ratings, data analytics, founder interviews, and financial products. KingsCrowd collects hundreds of data points on every startup that raises money online, and our patent-pending algorithm provides a quantitative assessment of the startup's investment potential. We believe in the power of data-driven investment decisions.

🚨 Data deep-dive analysis alert! 🚨 I hear many investors tell me that they feel that debt crowdfunding deals are "lower risk" than equity crowdfunding deals. Personally, I've always wondered if that's the case. When an investor can get 5% right now in risk-free savings accounts, are private credit / debt interest rates in #RegulatedInvestmentCrowdfunding fairly compensating investors for the risks they are taking (failure, illiquidity, etc.)? In this week's chart-of-the-week at KINGSCROWD, I broke down recent trends in debt and revenue-share #RegCF and #RegA offerings since 2022 to estimate if investors are being fairly compensated for the risk they are taking. This week's deep-dive analyzes: -Failure rates of debt/rev-share offering companies to date -Estimated debt interest rates required for investors to break-even due to failures and other risks -How Reg CF debt interest rates have trended over time -How debt interest rate averages vary by funding platform Check out the data deep-dive here 👇 https://lnkd.in/eDGHdBPa #regulationcrowdfunding #investmentcrowdfunding #debtcrowdfunding
