THE MAMACROWD RANKING

  • In second place for number of activated campaigns
  • Record number of investors per campaign, with Startup Italia(2069 investors).

Considering the "particular" year we are living, it must be said that crowdfunding has not suffered from the pandemic, the collection on the market and the flow of investments have grown.

THE NEWS

What factors have led to this growth?

  • Certainly the increase of the percentage that can be deducted in the income statement, passed from 30 to 50% for those who invest in start-ups and innovative SMEs; the help starts from the "Decreto Rilancio" of May 19, approved in the chamber on July 9, 2020.
  • An important change to the Consob regulation is also notified, so that today equity crowdfunding portals can also publish offers with debt securities and bonds of SMEs.
