The eighth World Investor Week (WIW) will take place from Monday 7 to Sunday 13 October 2024. 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.
The Financial Services and Markets Authority (FSMA), whose chairman, Jean-Paul Servais, also chairs the IOSCO Board, once again lends its full support to this initiative. This morning, Mr Servais took part in the ‘Ring the Bell’ ceremony at Euronext Brussels to mark the beginning of World Investor Week. A similar ceremony was held in more than 50 stock exchanges worldwide on the occasion of the WIW.
World Investor Week 2024 focuses, among other things, on sustainable finance and crypto-assets. Other topics, such as online investments and the different types of scams they are liable to, are also featured. Within this framework, the FSMA has relaunched its major awareness campaign against online investment fraud.
