Investor Education: The Tool to Protect
Investors from Fraud

An informed investor is the best defense against fraud. An investor who asks the right questions and checks with his or her securities regulator to determine if an investment and its salesperson are properly registered is less likely to be a victim of fraud. Investor education and financial literacy give investors the tools to protect themselves. We offer to the public a variety of on-line tools and publications to help investors understand how to evaluate investments.  If you have a question about a particular security or feel you may have been the victim of a scam or an unscrupulous broker or financial adviser, please call our Bureau at (603) 271-1463.
