This policy provides guidance on how CSA will generally respond to certain types of continuous disclosure defaults. The policy describes the criteria the CSA regulators will apply when assessing whether to issue a general CTO or an MCTO, what an issuer needs to include in its application for an MCTO, and what information an issuer must file during the period of an MCTO to support informed trading. The policy will replace CSA Staff Notice 57-301 - Failing to File Financial Statements on Time - Management Cease Trade Orders.
CSA members are publishing the policy for a 60-day comment period to expire on May 27, 2008.
