The Financial and Consumer Affairs Authority (FCAA) of Saskatchewan has just announced some great news for investors and investment dealers alike! Starting October 1, 2025, the Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization (CIRO) will take charge of certain registration functions, helping to streamline processes and reduce red tape.

Why does this matter? Well, it means that only the most qualified and honest individuals will be registered to sell securities and derivatives, ensuring a safer environment for everyone involved. This move is designed to boost public trust in our regulatory system.

According to FCAA Chair and CEO Roger Sobotkiewicz, this new delegation will enhance responsiveness for industry stakeholders while protecting investors. CIRO President and CEO Andrew J. Kriegler also expressed enthusiasm over this development, emphasizing its efficiency and effectiveness in delivering regulation.

What’s more, other regions in Canada, such as Alberta and Ontario, have already adopted similar measures. So, it's fair to say that this is a step in the right direction for investment regulation across the country!

For more details, you can check out the CIRO Delegation webpage on the CSA website. Let’s embrace this positive change together!
