Notice of Consent – Mutual Fund Dealers Association of Canada (MFDA)

Market Regulation Document Type
MFDA rule review


On June 17, 2008, the Commission consented to the Mutual Fund Dealers Association of Canada’s (MFDA’s) continued participation in a Co-operative Agreement with l’Autorité des marchés financiers du Québec (the Autorité) (known as l’Agence Nationale d’encadrement du secteur financier prior to December 17, 2004) and the Chambre de la sécurité financière (Chambre) in Québec, for which the MFDA had previously applied and received the Commission’s consent. The objectives of the Co-operative Agreement are to avoid regulatory inefficiencies and to preserve and enhance the respective separate mandates of the Autorité, the Chambre and the MFDA. Under the Co-operative Agreement, the Autorité, the Chambre and the MFDA co-ordinate their various regulatory functions with respect to MFDA Members and their Approved Persons operating in Québec.

A copy of the Ontario consent is published in Chapter 25 of this bulletin.
