The Canadian Securities Administrators yesterday released a staff notice summarizing the results of the CSA's continuous disclosure review program for fiscal 2012. Beyond identifying disclosure deficiencies, the notice also provides guidance intended to assist issuers in addressing common issues.

Of the approximately 4,200 issuers in Canada (other than investment funds), the CSA completed 1,351 full or issue-oriented reviews. Ultimately, 56% of review outcomes required issuers to take action to improve disclosure, which was a decrease from the 70% required to take action in fiscal 2011. The most common outcome involved an issuer being informed of changes or enhancements required in its next filing.
