The Jumpstart Our Business Startups (JOBS) Act is a U.S. law enacted in 2012 intended to ease capital formation and reduce regulatory burdens for emerging growth companies, including changes to IPO rules and private offering exemptions. In fundraising and going-public planning, the JOBS Act enables features like confidential IPO submissions for eligible issuers and expanded Regulation A offerings, and the JOBS Act also underpins aspects of general solicitation rules.
