Your investing questions, our clear answers.

Thanks for your question. First, while we try to provide information to help you get started, we are not able to provide advice or investment recommendations. Speak to a financial advisor for specific recommendations that fit your portfolio and financial goals.

All investments carry some level of investment risk – however, some investments have more risk than others. Generally, taking on this additional risk usually comes with the chance at higher returns, but this is not guaranteed. Before you choose your investments, understand your risk tolerance, and the relationship between risk and return.

Be aware of the signs of investment fraud, including the promise of a high return with little or no investment risk. You can always contact the OSC’s Inquiries & Contact Centre if you suspect you may have been offered a fraudulent investment.
