The Securities Commission of Jamaica issued these Regulations under the Securities (Amendment) Act, 2013 to establish a comprehensive regulatory framework for collective investment schemes. The document defines key terms such as accredited investors and mandates strict registration, renewal, and operational requirements for local schemes, including the appointment of independent custodians and fit-and-proper managers. It further outlines specific exemptions for certain private issuers and investment clubs while granting the Commission authority to suspend or cancel registrations for non-compliance.
