The Investia Relationship Disclosure Information Document (“RDID”) has been recently reviewed and amended. The key reasons for these changes are as follows:
- Regulatory requirements: To address conflicts arising from fee-based accounts; and
- Industry changes: The MFDA Client Complaint Information Form (CCIF) has been replaced with the CIRO Complaints Brochure.
As a reminder, it is mandatory to provide new clients with a copy of the RDID upon account opening. For existing clients, please notify them of the changes made to the RDID at your next client meeting and ensure this is recorded in their client file.
The amended RDID is available in 3 locations:
1. On the Investia corporate website, in the following sections:
• “Legal and Compliance” tab (at the bottom of the page):
• “The Investia experience” tab / “Information and documents for clients”:
2. On the Investia Advisor Centre, under Procedures & Forms / Compliance; and
3. In Univeris in the “Generate Forms” section under “Task Menu”.
Should you require additional information, please do not hesitate to contact your Compliance Officer.
