Functions of the TTSEC

The Trinidad and Tobago Securities and Exchange Commission (“TTSEC”) was established under the Securities Industry Act 1995 (SIA 1995) which was repealed and replaced by the Securities Act 2012 (SA 2012). The SA 2012 prescribes the legal framework for the functioning of  the TTSEC. This article outlines the regulatory framework for Trinidad and Tobago’s securities industry, as depicted in Figure 1, and gives a brief narrative of the TTSEC’s powers and functions, as carried out by the various divisions. Public education is inserted in Figure 1 for the sole purpose of highlighting its importance.
