The Securities and Exchange Commission has announced plans to join the International Organisation of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) and other capital market regulators across the globe to celebrate the 2017 edition of the IOSCO World Investor Week, first of its kind from October 2-8, 2017.
The Investor Week (WIW) is a week-long, global campaign for IOSCO to raise awareness about the importance of investor education and protection and highlights the various initiatives of securities regulators in these two critical areas.
IOSCO securities regulators across the globe will, among others, provide a variety of activities, including launching investor-focused communications and services, promoting contests to increase awareness of investor education initiatives, organizing workshops and conferences, and conducting local/national campaigns in their own jurisdictions.
On its part, Director General of SEC Mounir Gwarzo, said the commission has lined up a series of investor based activities targeted at investors, market women, artisans, students and the general public.
