Public Consultation Sessions to be Held

The Nova Scotia Securities Commission wants to hear from you https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDPo3kFv8Sw .

Many Nova Scotians rely on advice from their financial advisors. Knowing what advice must be disclosed and what you as an investor need to ask can directly impact your financial future.

Most people don’t know the conduct required of financial advisors under the current laws. Specific changes are being proposed to these laws.

The commission is hosting public consultation sessions to present the current rules and proposed changes and to hear what Nova Scotians think of the rules and changes which directly impact their financial future.

Events will be held:
— Tuesday, July 12, noon to 1 p.m. at the Halifax Central Library, 5440 Spring Garden Rd.
— Monday, July 18, noon to 1 p.m., Rodd Grand Yarmouth Hotel, 417 Main St., Yarmouth
— Wednesday, July 20, 4:30 p.m. to 6 p.m., People’s Place, Antigonish Town and County Library, 283 Main St., Antigonish

People can reserving a space by emailing nsscinquiries@novascotia.ca at least one day before the event. Events will include light refreshments, a short presentation and discussion.
