    On October 20, 2022, FCNB approved the amalgamation of the two existing SROs – the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (“IIROC”) and the Mutual Fund Dealers Association of Canada (“MFDA”) into a single enhanced new SRO. The new SRO came into operation on January 1, 2023, and was provisionally named New Self-Regulatory Organization of Canada (“New SRO”). On June 1, 2023, New SRO changed its name to the Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization (“CIRO”), which was approved by provincial and territorial regulators. CIRO is the national self-regulatory organization that oversees all investment dealers, mutual fund dealers and trading activity on Canada’s debt and equity marketplaces.
