CSA Publish Second FAQ Regarding New Registration Regime

On February 5, 2010, staff of the Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA) (http://www.securities-administrators.ca/) published a staff notice (the February FAQ) (http://tinyurl.com/ygvulw2) addressing frequently asked questions regarding compliance with the financial reporting requirements under National Instrument 31-103 Registration Requirements and Exemptions (NI 31-103) (http://www.osc.gov.on.ca/en/13596.htm). NI 31-103 came into effect on September 28, 2009 and was the subject of an earlier FAQ (http://tinyurl.com/yhxc2lg) published on December 18, 2009. The questions in the February FAQ were compiled from informal public enquiries received by CSA members and the responses are based on views of CSA staff.
