Emerging Crowd is a UK-based investment crowdfunding platform offering users equity and debt investments in unlisted emerging and frontier market companies.〔Financial Times, 22 November 2014, David Stevenson, 'A Crowded Market, But Potential'〕 The platform enables growth-stage businesses to raise up to £4 million (equivalent to the regulatory maximum of €5 million) in a 12-month period. Emerging Crowd provides registered investors with the opportunity to invest in companies which were previously only accessible to private equity and venture capital funds or wealthy investors.〔Huffington Post, 17 December 2014, Ijeoma Okoli, Africa Rising: Creating Global Investment Opportunities, Not Band Aids for Christmas〕 Emerging Crowd is regulated by the FCA as an appointed representative of Resolution Compliance Limited. The company was founded in June 2014 by Lucien Moolenaar and Will Tindall and launched in April 2015. It is based at Adam House on The Strand in London. ==Model==
Emerging Crowd uses the 'investment crowdfunding' model, an alternative form of financing for businesses seeking to raise capital. A 'crowd' of investors each invest or lend (according to the deal terms) a small amount of money (minimum £500) to a company which adds to the total funding amount required. Companies can, therefore, raise money without the need for banks or large investors, such as Private Equity or Venture Capital. Businesses can also benefit from the feedback and advice of a multitude of investors, potentially leading to better product development. By raising money for emerging and frontier market businesses, Emerging Crowd also provides a conduit between those businesses and UK based investors.〔Entrepreneur Country Global, 11 December 2014, Jessica Hashemi〕 If a company successfully raises its target amount on the platform, Emerging Crowd takes a percentage of the amount raised as a success fee. No fee is taken if the target amount is not reached. The platform does have the facility for ‘overfunding’ whereby the company raising the money can elect to raise more than the target amount if that amount is reached first.
