CCO Ed: New SRO Framework (CSA Position Paper 25-404) (LCI01C04)


Description
On August 3rd, 2021, the Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA) published a proposed framework to modernize the self-regulatory landscape in Canada's securities industry. This is really important. So we created an audio version and a video version of the Position Paper.

Background
In December 2019, a Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA) working group (the Working Group) was formed to conduct an in-depth review of the current framework for the two Self-Regulatory Organizations (SROs) -- the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC) and the Mutual Fund Dealers Association of Canada (MFDA)
