Requests for Comment
Why We Want Your Comments
All public interest amendments to Rules, By-laws, Policies and Forms are published for public comment. The MFDA encourages investors, Members and the general public to comment on all aspects of new Regulatory Instruments and amendments to existing Regulatory Instruments that are published for comment. We seek comments from a broad range of stakeholders to ensure that MFDA Regulatory Instruments adequately address risks and protect investors, while also avoiding undue regulatory burden. Commenters provide feedback in a number of areas, including investor impact, industry trends, operational practices and implementation issues, and drafting recommendations.
How We Solicit Comments
MFDA staff generally solicits comments from stakeholders in a form of bulletin describing the proposal or area of regulatory interest and indicating the length of the comment period and the methods of submitting comments. Notice of request for comments is also published on the website of the British Columbia Securities Commission (the MFDA’s Principal Regulator).
MFDA staff reviews and considers all comments thoroughly, summarizes and responds to the comments, and makes appropriate revisions.
Instructions for Submitting Comments:
Comments to all regulatory proposals should be made in writing, within the announced comment period to the attention of:
