That is the reason, as Axios reports, the $31-billion-esteemed organization has kept in touch with the SEC to inquire as to whether its principles around security proprietorship can be reconsidered.

In particular, Airbnb is looking for a change to the SEC's Rule 701 — which administers responsibility for in organizations — to permit another sort of investor class for specialists who take an interest in gig economy organizations and their administrations. Uber, for one, has met with the SEC to propose a comparative recompense however Airbnb's contention is spread out in a letter that you can read here (because of Axios.)

"As a sharing economy commercial center, Airbnb succeeds when these hosts succeed," the organization wrote in one entry. "We trust that empowering privately owned businesses to give has and other sharing economy members value in the organization from a prior stage would additionally adjust motivating forces between such organizations and their sharing economy members to the advantage of both."
