The Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA) published its 2024-2025 Year in Review, setting out progress against the six strategic goals in its 2022-2025 Business Plan and summarising recent work aimed at strengthening and supporting the competitiveness of Canada’s capital markets. The report also covers initiatives focused on innovation and investor protection, including efforts to deter misconduct and hold securities law violators accountable. Key activity metrics include 1,011 investor alerts, cautions and warnings, with more than 75 per cent related to crypto assets, and investor education campaigns that reached over 4.5 million Canadians. Enforcement outcomes cited include permanent bans on 54 companies and individuals following proceedings and enforcement actions in 20 crypto-related matters; the CSA also issued 57 publications on final rule changes, consultations, blanket orders and guidance, and convened representatives from 155 organisations for the CSA Collaboratory’s inaugural webinar on data portability. The Year in Review is available in English and French and points readers to the CSA’s 2025-2028 Business Plan, launched in June 2025, for additional detail on forward priorities.
