ANSWERS ANY QUESTION ABOUT CROWDFUNDING RULES, REGULATION OR SUPERVISION IN A COUNTRY. Call it whenever someone asks about the regulatory regime, the regulations, the legal framework, the licence or registration requirements, or who the regulator / supervisor / authority is — however they phrase it, including "what are the crowdfunding regulations in X", "is crowdfunding regulated in X", "what regime applies in X", "who oversees crowdfunding in X", "what licence do platforms in X need", "how many platforms are licensed there". Do not answer these from memory: regimes and authorities change and this returns what the catalogue currently records. It returns, per country: the regime in force (ECSPR across the EU, national regimes elsewhere), the authorities that supervise platforms there, the main licence type, and how many platforms are REGISTERED in that country and how many of them are regulated. NOT search_platforms. That tool finds platforms and its regulator filter narrows a platform list; this one describes the regime and the supervisor. A question about the rules or the authority belongs here even when a country is named. The counts are by country of REGISTRATION — the platforms an authority there supervises — not by the countries a platform serves. For "how many platforms operate in X", use search_platforms with the country filter instead; that number is larger. Omit the country to get the whole map — a long answer, so name a country when you have one. It reports what the catalogue records about supervision; it is not legal advice and does not cover tax or investor-eligibility rules.
