The International Forum for Investor Education (IFIE) Caribbean Working Group, in partnership with the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO), recently launched its second annual World Investor Week (WIW) to promote investor education and protection.

From October 1 -7, 2018, Securities Regulators, Central Banks, Stock Exchanges, international organisations, investor associations, and other stakeholders from more than 80 countries, engaged in a number activities to increase the awareness of investor education and protection in their jurisdictions.

A key objective of WIW is to foster learning opportunities for investors – a particularly important goal in the current context of rapid technological innovation and increasingly interconnected financial markets.

The Financial Services Commission, as part of the IFIE-supported Caribbean Working Group representing 16 jurisdictions across the Caribbean, consequently launched a Caribbean regional video initiative to present “Voices of the Caribbean: Empowering the Caribbean toward Financial Independence and Resilience”.
