In particular, the authors focus on financial return crowdfunding, which repays the crowd either through debt or equity. This source of capital might play a significant role in the future becoming an alternative or a complement to traditional funding sources. It is therefore of the uttermost importance to understand what has boosted its exponential growth in recent years, as well as the key drivers of success of P2P lending and equity crowdfunding campaigns on both the funders and the fundraisers side. Due to the financial nature of the return provided to the crowd, financial return crowdfunding has been the object of recent waves of regulation, although the European Union still lacks a set of common rules. The aim of regulation should be twofold, to protect investors and, at the same time, to favor the financing for SMEs. In this book, the authors explore such issues and the regulatory policies, while looking to the future of financial return crowdfunding as an evolving source of capital. . 410 0$aPalgrave Macmillan Studies in Banking and Financial Institutions,$x2523-336X 606 $aCapital investments 606 $aCapital market 606 $aBusiness enterprises?Finance 606 $aFinancial engineering 606 $aFinance, Public 606 $aEuropean Union 606 $aInvestment Appraisal$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/612030 606 $aCapital Markets$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/616000 606 $aBusiness Finance$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/512000 606 $aFinancial Engineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/612020 606 $aPublic Finance$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/611000 606 $aEuropean Union Politics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911140 615 0$aCapital investments. 615 0$aCapital market. 615 0$aBusiness enterprises?Finance. 615 0$aFinancial engineering. 615 0$aFinance, Public. 615 0$aEuropean Union. 615 14$aInvestment Appraisal. 615 24$aCapital Markets. 615 24$aBusiness Finance. 615 24$aFinancial Engineering. 615 24$aPublic Finance. 615 24$aEuropean Union Politics. 676 $a658.154 702 $aBottiglia$b Roberto$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aPichler$b Flavio$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254890203321 996 $aCrowdfunding for SMEs$92048300 997 $aUNINA
