Canadian Securities Regulators Implement a New National Registration Regime
July 17, 2009 - The Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA) have published new rules across Canada that apply to firms and individuals who deal in securities, provide investment advice or manage investment funds. National Instrument 31-103 Registration Requirements and Exemptions, and related rules and amendments, create a new Canada-wide registration regime. This important initiative reflects an extensive consultation process that began in 2005. The CSA is also making some amendments to National Instrument 45-106 Prospectus and Registration Exemptions to further harmonize and streamline requirements for using some exemptions and to complement changes to the registration regime in National Instrument 31-103 Registration Requirements and Exemptions. National Instrument 31-103 Registration Requirements and Exemptions and related rules and amendments will come into force on September 28, 2009.
