Episode Synopsis

Crowd-Sourced Funding (CSF) Equity Raising: a real, underused pathway for SMEs – and a powerful advisory opportunity for your firm. In this episode of Accountants Minute Podcast, Peter Towers busts the myth that only unlisted public companies can raise via CSF, explains the ASIC-licensed intermediary model, and shows how accountants, bookkeepers and advisors can prepare SME clients to raise up to $5M without a prospectus. You'll learn where firms add the most value – investment-readiness (plans, budgets, cashflow forecasts, governance), crafting the CSF Offer Document, and converting post-raise support into ongoing Virtual CFO work.
