The Autorité des marchés financiers proposes amendments to the Securities Regulation to align fee collection with a newly implemented well-known seasoned issuer (WKSI) regime. The amendment shifts mandatory fee payments from the preliminary base shelf prospectus filing to the base shelf prospectus filing, establishing a prescribed minimum fee amount under section 267 without altering the total cost. Stakeholders may submit written comments by August 17, 2024, prior to the regulation’s submission to the Government for final approval.
