SEC Highlights Investor Protection for World Investor Week 2021

The Securities and Exchange Commission today announced that it will highlight investor education and protection resources during World Investor Week 2021 (WIW). This marks the fifth year of WIW, a global effort promoted by the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) that brings together regulators on six continents to raise awareness about the importance of investor education and protection. The SEC is once again serving as the national coordinator in the U.S. working with the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission, Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, National Futures Association, and North American Securities Administrators Association. Together with these organizations, the SEC's Office of Investor Education and Advocacy (OIEA) issued a joint Investor Bulletin today to promote WIW's key messages.
