Canadian securities regulators release fourth review regarding women on boards and executive officer positions


TORONTO, Sept. 27, 2018 /CNW/ - Securities regulatory authorities in Alberta, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Quebec and Saskatchewan (the participating jurisdictions) today published CSA Multilateral Staff Notice 58-310 Report on Fourth Staff Review of Disclosure regarding Women on Boards and in Executive Officer Positions.

This is the fourth review since 2015 by participating jurisdictions of the Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA) following the implementation of disclosure requirements set out in National Instrument 58-101 Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices regarding the representation of women on boards and in executive officer positions. The notice summarizes results from a review of 648 issuers that had year-ends between December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018.

Key trends outlined in this year's review include:

"Completing and publishing this review supports our ongoing focus on ensuring that information that investors use to make investment and voting decisions is readily available," said Louis Morisset, CSA Chair and President and CEO of the Autorité des marchés financiers.

The CSA intends to publish the underlying data from this review later this fall.

The notice can be found on the websites of the participating jurisdictions.

The CSA, the council of the securities regulators of Canada's provinces and territories, co-ordinates and harmonizes regulation for the Canadian capital markets.
