The Options Industry Council (OIC)
The Options Industry Council (OIC) was created to educate investors and their financial advisors about the benefits and risks of exchange-traded equity options.
These videos discuss exchange-traded options issued by The Options Clearing Corporation. No statement in these videos is to be construed as a recommendation to purchase or sell a security, or to provide investment advice. Options involve risk and are not suitable for all investors. Prior to buying or selling an option, a person must receive a copy of Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options. Copies of this document may be obtained from your broker, from any exchange on which options are traded or by contacting The Options Clearing Corporation.
All OIC material is provided for educational purposes only. Completing or viewing an OIC course does not guarantee that an individual has obtained a minimum level of knowledge or skill, is not an indication of investor suitability to trade options.
