The Deal Scout
Building Capital Ecosystems in Florida w/ Commissioner Russell C Weigel III
Jan 25, 2022
Josh Wilson
The Office of Financial Regulation (OFR) is the primary regulator of the state-chartered and licensed financial services industries in Florida. We have proposed legislation, HB 779 and SB 1880 - Offers and Sales of Securities, to reform the Florida Securities and Investor Protection Act (Chapter 517, Florida Statutes) with the aim of stimulating the growth of a capital market for the financing of Florida businesses. Our goal is to promote Florida’s economy through the creation of a self-sustaining, in-state capital market where newly formed businesses can obtain seed or expansion capital.
