Part of the Nova Scotia Securities Commission mandate is to protect Nova Scotia investors. One of the ways we do that is by issuing investor alerts and cautions. You can find all the alerts we’ve issued for the last seven years on our Investor Alert Database.
To try and spread further awareness about the companies and people we have issued alerts and caution about, our Before you Invest Blog does regular reviews of alerts through the year. This review will look at all alerts and cautions issued since January.
