The Commission is publishing a revised memorandum of understanding between the Canadian Securities Administrators for exchange and quotation and trade reporting system oversight. It replaces an earlier MOU signed on September 3, 2002.
Like the previous MOU, the revised MOU uses a lead regulator model. The lead regulator is responsible for coordinating the oversight program for an exchange or QTRS. Appendix A to the revised MOU lists the lead, exempting and participating regulators for each exchange. As indicated on the List of Exchanges, there is currently no exempting regulator for ICE Futures Canada Inc. However, this is a temporary situation since this exchange has filed for an exemption from the requirement to be recognized as an exchange in some jurisdictions.
The BCSC signed the MOU on September 4, 2009 and it will be effective January 1, 2010.
