The Audit Division conducts unannounced audits of both registered and unregistered entities who are selling securities, providing investment advice, selling business opportunities, or acting as a business or loan broker. The Division conducts audits to determine if individuals are complying with all of the Acts administered by the Department. If evidence of fraud or non-compliance is discovered, the matter is referred to the Enforcement Division. Information obtained during the course of these audits is non-public unless it is utilized as evidence in a public action taken by the Department.
