As the standard model states an electron is a pointlike particle. If it is really so it has all features to be thought of as a mini black hole but then there is the problem how a such black hole can emit EM waves.

            A classical black hole as small as an electron would evaporate due to Hawking radiation in a time much shorter than the Planck time. We know this is absurd. Therefore electrons cannot behave like classical black holes. It is also doubtful whether they are really pointlike particles. In the two leading candidates for a theory of quantum gravity - string theory and loop quantum gravity - there is no such thing as a pointlike particle.
