The B.C. Securities Commission (BCSC) has given its investor education website InvestRight.org a brand new look, helping visitors more easily find the information they need to feel empowered and informed about their investment decisions.
InvestRight is an unbiased resource with relevant tools and tips for both new and experienced investors. The website redesign has a streamlined look with key topics at the top of the homepage, so visitors can spend less time navigating and more time learning. Find information about the basics of investing, managing investments, avoiding fraud, or discover tools, resources and news in a single click. Reporting fraud or misconduct is easier than ever with a standout button on the home page.
“October is Investor Education Month,” said Pamela McDonald, the BCSC’s Director of Communications and Education. “We are using that opportunity to showcase InvestRight.org and the valuable information it provides, all designed to arm British Columbians with the tools and information that can help them in their investing journey.”
