Younger adults and those who experience the fear of missing out (FOMO) are more likely to think social media is a good place to find investment opportunities, according to new research from the British Columbia Securities Commission (BCSC).

To educate people about the risk of letting FOMO drive their investment decisions, the BCSC is running a multi-media campaign called *Hi, My Name is FOMO.*The campaign will help British Columbians understand the importance of doing research before investing and encourage them to report suspected fraud to the BCSC.
