The Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA) released an Oversight Review Report of the Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization (CIRO) assessing CIRO’s compliance with the terms and conditions of its recognition orders and whether its regulatory processes are effective, efficient, and applied consistently and fairly. The CSA staff conducted a risk-based review targeting information technology, membership intake, and trading conduct compliance. The review identified three medium priority findings, for which CIRO has established an action plan to address and remediate them; aside from these findings, the CSA staff did not identify concerns with CIRO meeting the relevant recognition-order terms and conditions in the functional areas reviewed.
