Capital Ideas 9: Dar'shun Kendrick on the biggest challenges in capital raising

Dar'shun Kendrick wears many hats as a securities attorney, founder of the nonprofit Minority Access to Capital, and member of the Georgia House of Representatives. Dar'shun points to the challenges facing newcomers to the capital markets, including a need for mentors and regulatory barriers such as the SEC's accredited investor net worth and income requirements. Dar'shun says the SEC has "a job of protecting investors but sometimes we hold on so tightly right that we're stopping the actual free markets and empowering people to their own self-destination, we're overprotective."
