As we wrap up another successful edition of our Best Business Practices Roadshows, we would like to thank you for attending in such large numbers this year. Your interest and participation are very important to us!

We would like to remind you that you have until June 30, 2024 (no exceptions) to use the Client Fee Dashboard to select clients for whom you would like to pay this year’s Client Fee, if applicable. After this date, this option will be locked down.

We would like to inform you that the online group training offer will be limited between June 15 and September 15.

Currently, the North American investment industry supports a trade date plus two business days (T+2) transaction settlement period. However, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) mandated the U.S. market participants to shorten this settlement cycle from T+2 to T+1, which has prompted the Canadian Capital Markets Association (CCMA) to announce to move in tandem with the U.S. market and support a T+1 settlement period standard in Canada.

We would like to inform you that changes have been made to the Client Fee FAQ to clarify the following:

In preparation for the collection of 2024 Client Fees on June 30, please be advised that the Client Fee Dashboard has been reactivated.
