We are pleased to bring you another edition of Private Capital Markets, the national magazine of the Private Capital Markets Association of Canada (PCMA).

You can access the new edition HERE.

In this edition, we will share detailed insights into Ontario’s new Offering Memorandum, how it works, what to watch for, how to stay compliant, and how to take advantage of the opportunities the new OM reality presents. Other authors tackle the CSA concerns about ‘captive dealers’ and conflicts of interest and offer some advice to areas of the market where this is more common. We bring you market insights and regulatory advice on topics ranging from crowdfunding and FinTech, to succession planning for your practice, referral development, the ongoing joys of IFRS, opportunities for registered plans and individual pension plans, successful board governance and other topics aimed at providing you more insight, useful new ideas, and helpful reminders of best practices you may want to adopt. 

Please share our magazine and the articles you are most interested in with your colleagues and contacts – if they aren’t part of our discussion yet, invite them to join you in the PCMA!

You can read previous editions of the magazine on our website HERE.

Dear PCMA Supporters,
 
As we look towards the end of 2015 and a holiday season that is almost upon us, I am pleased to share another edition of Private Capital Markets, the national magazine of the Private Capital Markets Association of Canada.
 
Inside, you will find a series of articles with new insights into financial reporting changes, governance priorities, books and records matters and the challenges of regulatory compliance in today’s environment. Increasingly, our magazine brings to light some fascinating new areas of investment in our broad and diversified private markets. In this edition, we also celebrate the exciting and long awaited news that the Offering Memorandum Exemption will finally be available in Ontario – a huge change for our private markets. The voice and advocacy of the PCMA, supported by others across the industry, was a catalyst for this important regulatory change. Since 2012, the PCMA has worked with securities regulators to emphasize the need for a robust and harmonized Offering Memorandum Exemption across Canada, and most importantly, for Ontario to catch-up to the rest of Canada.
 
Please share this Magazine and the articles you are most interested in with your colleagues and contacts across Canada – if they aren’t part of our discussion yet, invite them to join your PCMA!
