This legislation seeks to enhance investor confidence and ensure fair recourse by prohibiting mandatory pre-dispute arbitration agreements across the securities markets. It addresses concerns that such clauses give powerful advantages to issuers, brokers, dealers, and investment advisers, thereby severely restricting defrauded investors' ability to seek redress. The bill aims to empower investors to freely choose between arbitration or pursuing remedies in court, including through class action lawsuits. Specifically, the bill amends the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to prohibit the listing of securities if the issuer mandates arbitration for shareholder disputes. It also makes it unlawful for brokers, dealers, and funding portals to enter into agreements that mandate arbitration, restrict forum selection, or limit an investor's ability to pursue claims individually, representatively, or on a class action basis. Similar prohibitions are extended to investment advisers under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 , and the Securities Act of 1933 is amended to prevent the registration of securities from issuers with mandatory arbitration clauses. Provisions in existing agreements that violate these new rules are rendered void, unless an arbitration process was already initiated before the bill's enactment.
