The Canadian Securities Administrators (“CSA’) have made the harmonization of the registration rules among the jurisdictions of Canada a key goal. Pursuant to this goal new national securities regulations have been drafted - NI 31-103 〔() National Instrument 31-103〕 to provide uniform requirements and categories of registration for dealers in exempt market securities across the country. ==Exempt Market Dealer Requirements== (NI 31-103 ) introduces consistent rules for (Exempt Market Dealers ) concerning proficiency, conduct, capital and compliance requirements and makes it clear that EMDs are subject to the same know-your-client (“KYC”) and suitability requirements as other dealer categories. Exempt market dealers, and the registered individuals who work for them, may act as a dealer or underwriter for any securities which are prospectus exempt, as a dealer for any securities sold to clients who qualify for purchase of exempt securities, and as a dealer for investment funds which are either prospectus qualified or prospectus exempt. Exempt market dealers are different than: -Full service investment dealers which engage in trading for all types of clients including retail clients and are required to be members of the self-regulatory organization, the (Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada ) (IIROC); -Mutual fund dealers which are restricted to trading in mutual funds and are required to be members of the self-regulatory organization, the Mutual Funds Dealers Association (MFDA); scholarship plan dealers which are restricted to trading in scholarship plans and educational trusts; and -Restricted dealers. Exempt market dealers must follow the same "Know Your Client" procedures as other registered dealers which ensures that each client's personal, financial and investment profile is understood and confirmed prior to any trading activity.〔 Loewen, Jacoline (2008). Money Magnet: Attract Investors to Your Business. Canada, Toronto: John Wiley & Sons. ISBN 978-0-470-15575-2〕 Exempt market dealers must also ensure that any exempt security is suitable for a particular client by considering the particular investment product as well as each individual client's investment goals and profile. EMD advisors need to make sure their letters of engagement and investment policy statements clearly outline mutual expectations and the manner in which the (advisor ) is being paid. There are (key regulatory documents ) for EMDS. The applicable provincial and territorial securities legislation, regulations and rules for any person or firm will generally depend on the jurisdiction of residence of the investor and dealer or adviser and the jurisdiction in which the registerable activity occurs.
