Draft Regulation to amend Regulation 52-110 respecting Audit Committees

The regulator amends Regulation 52-110 respecting Audit Committees to update specific definitions within the Securities Act framework. The changes replace the reference to Aequitas NEO Exchange Inc. with NEO Exchange Inc. in the definition of venture issuer. Additionally, the French text is corrected to align the term for asset-backed securities with the terminology used in Regulation 51-102 on continuous disclosure obligations.
