In South Carolina, securities and investment-related laws are
addressed by the state's Uniform Securities Act, found in Title 35 of
the Code of Laws of South Carolina. By legislative enactment, the
state Attorney General also serves as the state Securities
Commissioner, and as such, he is responsible for the enforcement of
the Uniform Securities Act.
The Uniform Securities Act contains thirteen articles which cover
the following areas: definitions, exempt securities and transactions,
stockbrokers, investment advisers and their firms, securities
registration, notice filings for federal-covered securities,
fraudulent and other prohibited practices, judicial review,
enforcement, remedies, liabilities and penalties.
