CALGARY, April 26, 2018 /CNW/ - A hearing has been scheduled before a Hearing Panel of the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC) to consider whether the panel should accept a Settlement Agreement entered into between IIROC staff and Sherry Jean Dalla-Longa.

The Agreement concerns allegations that Ms. Dalla-Longa failed to use due diligence to learn and remain informed of the essential facts in regard to two of her clients; made recommendations that were not suitable for these two clients; and engaged in personal financial dealings with these two clients without the approval of her firm.

The hearing is not open to the public, but will become open in the event that the panel accepts the agreement. If the agreement is accepted, the Panel's decision and the Settlement Agreement will be made available at www.iiroc.ca.
