November 2013 - Kinstellar authored the Czech Republic, Hungary and Slovakia chapters of a new paper on crowdfunding recently published by the European Crowdfunding Network. The work, entitled Review of Crowdfunding Regulation. Interpretations of existing regulation concerning crowdfunding in Europe, North America and Israel, provides an overview of crowdfunding regulation in almost 30 countries.
The Czech Republic, Hungary and Slovakia chapters offer a high level review of the current market and regulation of crowdfunding platforms – a practice still in its infancy in these jurisdictions – as well as the possible regulation of crowdfunding platforms under the Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive, 2011/61/EU, which entered into force in July 2013.
