Customer categorization

In connection with registration on the FinReg platform (eAktiebok), FinReg needs to secure certain information in accordance with the EU Regulation for crowdfunding (EU 2017/1120 and EU 2019/1937). In order to ensure good protection for investors, FinReg will categorize and differentiate between sophisticated and non-sophisticated investors. As a non-sophisticated investor, FinReg Solutions has created a higher level of protection to ensure that investors have the knowledge to invest in crowdfunding projects.

A sophisticated investor is considered to be aware of the risks that arise when investing in crowdfunding projects and has the financial resources to avoid excessive financial consequences. If desired, FinReg can categorize a legal or natural person as a sophisticated investor. A sophisticated investor is no longer included within the investor protection frameworks offered by FinReg Solutions. These include:

• Testing of experience and knowledge (incl. warnings) and simulations of the ability to bear losses

• Protection against excessive exposure to crowdfunding projects

• Possibility to withdraw offer according to the EU regulation on the right to a reflection period

In order for FinReg to be able to make this assessment, the criteria below must be met and supporting documentation must be submitted and documented. The desire to be classified as a sophisticated investor shall also include a declaration of the loss of investor protection and a statement that the information submitted is truthful.
