Regulation to amend Regulation 81-106 respecting Investment Fund Continuous Disclosure

The securities regulator amends Regulation 81-106 to modify the annual information filing requirements for investment funds. The revised Section 9.2 mandates that funds file an annual information form if they have not obtained a prospectus receipt in the preceding 12 months. This requirement is exempted for funds in continuous distribution that have filed an ETF facts document or a fund facts document during that period.
