Registrant Outreach Program
The mission of the BCSC Registrant Outreach program for Chief Compliance Officers ("CCOs") and others responsible for compliance is to improve compliance by opening the lines of communication between CCOs of registered portfolio managers, scholarship plan dealers, restricted dealers, investment fund managers, exempt market dealers and compliance staff in BCSC’s Capital Markets Regulation Division.
Please contact the Registrant Outreach program at RegistrantOutreach@bcsc.bc.ca [Compliance] with any compliance questions or concerns you have regarding any industry or individual practice. You may request anonymity when speaking with the staff.
Quarterly workshops
Outreach workshops are held quarterly at the BCSC offices. These workshops cover various topics applicable to our registrants and some workshops consist of panel discussions among BCSC staff and compliance personnel. BCSC participants include staff from the Capital Markets Regulation division.
The workshop is open to the executive management and compliance staff of our registrants and is available via live audio webcast. In-person and online attendees can ask questions, which the panel members or presenters will attempt to address. We invite all interested parties to copresent topics at our workshops.
Please contact us at RegistrantOutreach@bcsc.bc.ca [Compliance] if you are interested in speaking at a future quarterly workshop or have suggestions for panel discussions.
Upcoming workshops
All workshops are from 2 p.m. - 4 p.m.
Please contact us at RegistrantOutreach@bcsc.bc.ca if you have questions or concerns.
