Introduction
The TSX has published amendments to the TSX Company Manual that:
The Amendments follow two earlier public consultations by the TSX in May 2016 and April 2017 on the same topic. The TSX remains of the view that investors will benefit from a centralized location for an issuer’s documents outside SEDAR despite the fact that the Amendments duplicate and in some instances exceed securities law requirements and may result in an increased regulatory burden for some issuers.
Publicly accessible website
Effective April 1, 2018, each TSX-listed issuer, other than eligible interlisted issuers, eligible international interlisted issuers and non-corporate issuers, will be required to maintain a publicly accessible website. Issuers will be required to post the following documents:
The webpages where documents are posted must be easily accessible from the issuer’s home page. If a document required to be posted is contained within a larger document, the requirements will be satisfied by the posting of the larger document.
Security-based compensation arrangements
Issuers will be required to make enhanced disclosure regarding their security-based compensation arrangements for financial years ending on or after October 31, 2017. The Amendments:
Issuers are reminded that materials for meetings where shareholder approval for a security-based compensation arrangement is sought must be pre-cleared with the TSX.
