Overview

Individuals, including married couples or domestic partners, have a set of standards they need to meet in order to be designated as an accredited investor by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Note: Individuals encompass natural person and/or their spouse or domestic partner.

Individual Standards

Below are the common standards for individuals. Investors do not need to meet all of them, but rather only one of them.

• Income
• Net Worth
• Financial Professional

Again, note that these standards can be met as a single natural person, or jointly between two natural persons who are domestic or married partners.
