The Securities & Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) is pleased to announce its annual Investor Awareness Seminar 2026, a full-day event designed to bridge the knowledge gap between Pakistan's regulatory framework and the everyday investor. This seminar forms part of SECP's broader mandate to promote informed participation in capital markets and protect retail investors from financial fraud and exploitation.
The seminar will bring together senior SECP commissioners, industry experts, licensed fund managers, fintech innovators, and financial literacy advocates to deliver a structured program of presentations, panel discussions, and interactive workshops. Participants will gain practical knowledge about investment instruments, risk management, investor rights, and how to identify and report fraudulent schemes.
This is a free, public event open to all Pakistani citizens with particular emphasis on first-time investors, university students, women investors, and small business owners seeking to grow their capital safely.
