What they regulate
Federal securities markets: broker-dealers, investment advisers, exchanges, and related disclosures. FINRA BrokerCheck (finra.org) is a self-regulatory roster and is not a .gov site. SIPC (sipc.org) is also not .gov.
Always prefer the live .gov site over a third-party mirror. Index ≠ endorsement.
How to verify
- SEC home / investor resources — Federal securities regulator for broker-dealers and investment advisers.
