Understanding the Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization (CIRO): A quick primer

The Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization (CIRO), resulting from the amalgamation of the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC) and the Mutual Fund Dealers Association of Canada (MFDA), began operating on January 1, 2023. The introduction of the new self-regulatory organization (formerly known as the New Self-Regulatory Organization of Canada or New SRO) has led to significant changes in the oversight of investment dealers and mutual fund dealers across the country, as well as new opportunities. BLG and AUM Law have created this simple and informative tool to make it easier to find, understand and act on several important topics. We will update this website as new information becomes available.
