The two-fold mission of the Bureau of Securities Regulation is to provide equitable regulation for the protection of New Hampshire investors while facilitating responsible capital formation in the state.
 
The Bureau licenses securities brokers, broker agents, investment advisers and investment adviser agents and professional bail bondsmen. In addition, it registers certain securities and approves exemptions from registration in other cases. The Bureau also investigates complaints about licensees and may take administrative or legal action against persons who violate the New Hampshire securities laws.
