DECISION No. 2025-PDG-0043: Coordinated General Decision 81-930 regarding the exemption from certain repurchase agreement obligations for investment funds

The Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF) has issued Decision No. 2025-PDG-0043, exempting investment funds that are reporting issuers from specific repurchase agreement obligations under Regulation 81-102. This exemption enables these funds to access the Bank of Canada's Standing Term Repo Facility (STRF) for liquidity management during periods of severe market strain. Funds must meet conditions including manager determination of best interest, using cash for liquidity, and timely notification and reporting to their principal regulator after STRF approval and each use.
