Most businesses dream of raising capital, but few realize that Regulation D gives you a legal, streamlined path to do it without needing Wall Street venture capital firms or a public offering.
Today, we’re unlocking how you can raise real money on your terms through Reg D.
Hi, I’m Tilden Moschetti, founder of Moschetti Syndication Law. I help businesses, syndicators, and fund managers use Regulation D to legally raise capital faster, smarter, and without unnecessary risk.
Today, I’m going to show you why Reg D is your secret weapon for funding growth—and how to use it right.
Raising capital is one of the biggest leaps a business owner can take, and also one of the most intimidating.
When people hear about raising money, they imagine billion-dollar IPOs, SEC armies, and years of grueling compliance work.
What most people don’t realize is that Regulation D exists specifically to solve this problem for private businesses and private funds.
Regulation D is the workhorse of private capital raising in the United States. It’s not flashy. It doesn’t get news or headlines like venture capital rounds or tech IPOs, but it’s responsible for hundreds of billions of dollars flowing into businesses every year.
What it does is simple: it creates a legal exemption from the SEC full registration process, allowing businesses to raise an unlimited amount of capital privately, as long as they follow some very specific and manageable rules.
When you use Reg D properly, you can raise as much money as you want without registering a public offering. You can move faster. You can control where your investors are. You can tailor the deal terms to your needs.
In short, you keep ownership and decision-making power closer to home.
The most common tools inside Regulation D are Rule 506(b) and Rule 506(c). Each offers a different path to capital.
Under 506(b), you can raise quietly from investors you already know.
