The Kansas Insurance Commissioner and Securities Commissioner have jointly announced a new state website to educate individual investors and help them avoid fraud. SmartInvestKS.com uses a sports theme to help teach Kansas investors how to invest wisely and avoid fraud. “Over a century ago, Kansas became the first state in the country to pass laws protecting consumers and their investments,” says Insurance Commissioner Vicki Schmidt. “The investment world looks different than it did back then but our commitment to protecting Kansans remains steadfast.” Securities Commissioner Dan Klucas says that the financial damage that can be inflicted by investment fraud can rarely be undone.
