Canadian market watchdog faces criticism over ruling that brokers aren't obligated to review key disclosure forms.
A prominent Canadian stock market observer, David Baines, criticizes a recent Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization (CIRO) decision that dismissed the importance of stockbrokers reviewing private placement disclosure forms (Form 9s) as part of their due diligence.
The ruling, involving two brokers from PI Financial, says they had no formal obligation to check these forms, despite allegations of capital market misconduct.
Baines argues this decision undermines the role of stockbrokers as gatekeepers.
CIRO is appealing the case before the B.C.
Securities Commission, with a hearing set for January 23, 2025.
