Eleven representatives from fund managers, trade groups and law firms make up the latest edition of the Ontario Securities Commission’s (OSC) registrant advisory committee (RAC), the commission announced Tuesday.
The committee provides a forum for industry players to discuss compliance and registration issues and challenges with the regulator. It also provides the OSC with industry input on regulatory policymaking.
The new edition of the RAC includes representatives from large firms such as CIBC Asset Management Inc. and Fidelity Investments Canada ULC, along with smaller players, including Sionna Investment Managers Inc., Nexus Investment Management Inc., 18 Asset Management Inc., Aurelius GRP (Canada) and Edgepoint Wealth Management Inc.
Two Industry trade groups, the Portfolio Management Association of Canada and the Private Capital Markets Association of Canada, are also represented. Members from a couple of large law firms, Fasken Martineau DuMoulin LLP and Wildeboer Dellelce LLP, round out the RAC for 2018-2019.
The full lists of members is available in the commission’s news release.
RAC members serve two-year terms. Debra Foubert, director of the OSC’s compliance and registrant regulation branch, continues to chair the RAC.
Correction
In a story that moved Tuesday, Investment Executive erroneously reported that a representative from 1832 Asset Management Inc. had been appointed to the OSC’s RAC. In fact, the representative was from 18 Asset Management Inc.
