The Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM) issued Instruction No. 333 to establish norms for securities distribution system members aimed at preventing fraud against investors. The regulation mandates specific anti-fraud measures, including restricting check endorsements to original payees, requiring explicit client orders for address changes or ownership transfers, and obligating intermediaries to verify suspicious proxy-based instructions. Violations of these provisions are classified as serious infractions under the Securities Market Law.
