What is the significance of the "Right of withdrawal" for investors?

A method of distribution used in Government of Canada marketable bonds
A time window for investors to change their mind
The right to take action for damages if the prospectus contains a misrepresentation
When the brokerage underwriting department negotiates on security types

The correct answer is: A time window for investors to change their mind

The "Right of withdrawal" gives investors a time window to change their mind on a securities offering and withdraw from the contract without any penalty. This is an important aspect for investors because they can conduct a more thorough evaluation of the investment opportunity and withdraw if they feel it is not suitable for their financial goals. Option A is incorrect as it refers to a specific distribution method used in Government of Canada marketable bonds, which is not the same as the "Right of withdrawal". Option C is also incorrect as it refers to taking legal action for damages, which is not the purpose of the "Right of withdrawal". Option D is incorrect as it refers to the brokerage underwriting department negotiating on security types, which is not related to an investor's ability to withdraw from a contract.
