It’s good for them and it’s good for our markets,” said SEC Chairman Jay Clayton. “The SEC remains committed to helping all Americans reach their investment goals and protect their hard-earned money, and that’s why events like World Investor Week and the continued efforts of the Office of Investor Education and Advocacy are instrumental to the mission of this agency.”
“I see first-hand the positive impact of our investor education efforts, whether it’s our outreach team conducting in-person events, online resources on Investor.gov and public service campaigns or our assistance team that handles investor complaints and solves problems on a daily basis,” said Lori Schock, Director of the SEC’s Office of Investor Education and Advocacy. “This week-long global effort reinforces the importance of what we and others do every day on behalf of America’s investors.”
