Definition

  • A prospectus is a document that provides detailed information about an investment. The prospectus first arrived in the investment arena with the Securities Act of 1933, which was created to improve investor confidence, prohibit fraud and misrepresentation in securities, and facilitate the creation of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
