ICAN at SPN's Annual Meeting
ICAN is in attendance at SPN's Annual Meeting, August 25th-28th in New Orleans, discussing what leaders need to know about state securities regulation.
As federal and state securities enforcement continue to evolve on different tracks, ICAN is working to ensure that fairness, transparency, and investor choice are protected at every level.
The SEC’s retreat from certain crypto cases and the Jarkesy decision limiting its use of in-house judges mark major shifts in Washington — but those protections aren’t guaranteed in state proceedings, where regulators often operate under different rules.
That’s why ICAN’s voice is so important in forums like the State Policy Network, making sure due process advances in both federal and state arenas.
Investor Choice Advocates Network (ICAN) is a nonprofit public interest litigation organization dedicated to breaking down barriers to entry to capital markets and pushing back against overreach by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), serving as a legal advocate and voice for small investors and entrepreneurs whose efforts help fuel vibrant local and national economies driven by innovation and entrepreneurship.
Our Clients
Through its direct litigation efforts, ICAN defends small investors and entrepreneurs whose efforts have been stymied by the overreach of the SEC and by their own limited ability to effectively challenge the actions of the behemoth government agency.
In the process, ICAN is building a precedent-based legal bulwark against SEC efforts to further restrict capital markets access.
