Press release
World Investor Week: the logo of World Investor Week

The sixth World Investor Week will take place from Monday 3 to Sunday 9 October 2022. It is organized by IOSCO, the International Organization of Securities Commissions. The aim of World Investor Week is to promote the education and protection of investors. The various initiatives taken by the supervisory authorities in these two critical areas will be at the centre of attention.

This year’s World Investor Week focuses on online investments and the different types of scams they are liable to. Other topics, such as sustainable finance and crypto assets, are also featured. This thematic week also offers one more opportunity to draw investors' attention to the basic principles of investing without taking undue risks.

As vice-chair of IOSCO and chair of the IOSCO European Regional Committee (ERC), the Financial Services and Markets Authority (FSMA) once again lends its full support to this initiative. As chair of the ERC, the chairman of the FSMA spoke via video message at the World Investor Week launch events in Paris and Warsaw.

Furthermore, the FSMA has launched a campaign via social media to encourage the public to visit its financial education website www.wikifin.be, which offers all kinds of useful information and helpful tools related to money matters.
