Investor Protection Trust

Investor Protection TrustThe primary mission of the Investor Protection Trust (IPT) is to provide independent, objective information needed by consumers to make informed investment decisions.

Founded in 1993 as part of a multi-state settlement to resolve charges of misconduct, IPT serves as an independent source of non-commercial investor education materials. IPT operates programs under its own auspices and uses grants to underwrite important initiatives carried out by other organizations.

In Michigan, the IPT works with the Michigan Office of Financial and Insurance Regulation to bring Investor Education in Your Community®, to Michigan residents. Hundreds of Michigan libraries, organizations, associations and companies have taken advantage of the free, objective investor education program on behalf of their patrons, members and employees.
