The chapters focus on different aspects of investor rights and the structures in place to protect them, and attempt to answer the following questions: Who is an investor? Why should we care about the proper functioning of the capital markets? What accountability measures are in place to protect investors? Are these programs efficient and, if not, how can we improve them? How did we get to the current state of investor rights? How do the rights and programs in Canada look in comparison to other similarly situated countries? How do other aspects of the financial and corporate systems, such as debt and corporate governance arrangements, affect investors? By answering these questions, this book attempts to contribute to the understanding and development of investor rights in Canada. It addresses both the legal and institutional structures protecting investor rights while also highlighting the gaps in protections and favourable paths forward. Indeed, understanding the investor, their rights, and their relationship with the underlying legal institutions that are set up to protect them constitute the foundation of this book. Understanding investor welfare necessarily entails situating them in the proper social, political, and legal contexts."-- $c Provided by publisher. 530 $a Issued also in electronic format. 650 0 $a Investments $x Law and legislation $z Canada. 650 0 $a Financial services industry $x Law and legislation $z Canada. 650 7 $a Financial services industry $x Law and legislation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00924762 650 7 $a Investments $x Law and legislation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00978270 651 7 $a Canada. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204310 776 08 $i Online version: $a Anand, Anita, 1967- $t Canadian investor. $d Toronto : Irwin Law, 2020 $z 9781552215081 $z 9781552215081 $w (OCoLC)1125160321 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20210721013959.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9732D616403511EB87AA299C42ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
