The Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA) – the umbrella organization of Canada’s provincial and territorial securities regulators that includes the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) – believe that the current regulatory framework requires improvements and that the status quo must change. The CSA has proposed a number of changes to improve the investor-advisor relationship. The OSC, along with most other CSA members, is also seeking comments on a proposed "best interest standard."

Teletownhalls are a new way for the Investor Office to connect with thousands of Ontarians at a time. Teletownhalls work much like a call-in radio show, where OSC staff provide information, answer questions and conduct live polls over the course of one hour.

Our upcoming teletownhall will focus on recognizing and preventing different types of investment fraud. Call in to learn more about spotting some common scams and ask OSC experts your fraud-related questions. Register now.

As part of Seniors' Month 2016, OSC staff are taking the Commission's regulatory mandate from Bay Street to Main Street with seminars on preventing fraud and making informed investment decisions. Learn more.
