SEC Supports Veterans in Wealth Building Event

SEC participated in "Financially Fit DC" to promote wealth building strategies for veterans and their families.


In honor of Veterans Day, SEC Commissioner Caroline Crenshaw and Office of Investor Education and Advocacy Deputy Director John Moses, joined the Department of Insurance Securities and Banking (DISB) for a veteran-focused event as part of DISB’s “Financially Fit DC” initiative.

Service members and veterans make more sacrifices than most of us can imagine—from risking their lives, to constant moves, to leaving their families for months or years at a time. The individuals who have undertaken this service are exceptional. We owe it to these Americans to help ensure they have the financial opportunities they deserve, including saving for retirement or for their children’s education.

The virtual event centered on wealth building strategies for veterans and their families.

“Service members and veterans make more sacrifices than most of us can imagine—from risking their lives, to constant moves, to leaving their families for months or years at a time,” said Commissioner Crenshaw, an Army Reservist and JAG officer. “The individuals who have undertaken this service are exceptional. We owe it to these Americans to help ensure they have the financial opportunities they deserve, including saving for retirement or for their children’s education.”

Moses, a Navy veteran, was part of a panel discussion that touched upon the financial needs of military families, resources for veterans to consider, and wealth building tips and strategies for current and former service members. He emphasized the investor education resources on Investor.gov, including a page dedicated for veterans.

Commissioner Karima Woods, head of DISB, also participated in the event, as well as speakers from the DC Mayor’s Office of Veterans Affairs and Military Saves.
