Investors

Providing protection to investors is one half of the OSC’s mandate. We strive to protect investors from fraud and other illegal activity through strong and effective securities regulation. We are committed to ensuring that the interests and concerns of investors are reflected in what we do:

• One of our four organizational goals is to “champion investor protection, especially for retail investors”
• Our Statement of Priorities sets out specific investor-related initiatives to undertake in the 2009-10 fiscal year

This section of the website tells you more about how we work to protect investors. You can find information about:
