Extension of two comment periods currently underway
Organization
Montréal – The Autorité des marchés financiers (the “AMF”) is extending the comment period for the Draft Regulation respecting complaint processing and dispute resolution in the financial sector (the “Draft Regulation”), published on September 9, 2021, until December 8, 2021.
It is also extending the comment period for the draft updated Sound Commercial Practices Guideline (the “Draft Updated Guideline”), published on October 21, 2021 (in French only), until December 17, 2021.
The comment periods are being extended so that the two draft frameworks and their objective of harmonizing the fair processing of complaints in Québec’s financial sector may be taken into account by interested persons in their analyses and comments. Anyone interested in submitting written comments may do so via the AMF website.
The Autorité des marchés financiers is the regulatory and oversight body for Québec’s financial sector.
