Filing & Fees

Issuers file disclosure documents with the BCSC and other Canadian securities regulators. Filings are made through different platforms, including BCSC eServices, SEDAR+, and SEDI. Issuers are charged various filing fees, which fund the BCSC’s operations.

Reporting issuers use SEDAR+ to file various disclosure documents and SEDI to file insider reports.

The BCSC receives no government or taxpayer funding, relying entirely on fees paid by securities market participants, including companies that issue securities, registered investment firms and registered investment advisors.
