Le Reporter (publié en anglais seulement) est un sommaire mensuel de l'évolution des législations et réglementations internationales et fédérales canadiennes qui sont pertinentes pour les institutions financières de régime fédéral au Canada. Il ne traite pas de l'évolution législative ou réglementaire des services financiers provinciaux, bien que BLG suive de près tout changement dans ce secteur et puisse, sur demande, fournir de l'information à ce sujet. De plus, les modifications de nature purement technique et administrative (comme celles qui sont apportées aux formulaires de rapport) ne sont pas traitées.

Statement on Administrative Monetary Penalty Policies We are going to look to work with Finance Canada to review the legislation in relation to our penalty program. We are also examining our administrative monetary penalty policies to ensure, among other things, that they strike an appropriate balance between the need for transparency and the requirements of the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act. |

Guideline E-22 Margin Requirements for Non-Centrally Cleared Derivatives In February of 2016, OSFI issued the final version of Guideline E-22 Margin Requirements for Non-Centrally Cleared Derivatives. Under this Guideline, most Federally Regulated Financial Institutions (FRFIs) meeting the definition of a covered entity (Covered FRFIs) are subject to the mandatory exchange of variation margin beginning on March 1, 2017. For FRFIs transacting with counterparties that do not present a significant exposure to them, OSFI now expects those FRFIs to meet the variation margin requirements by no later than September 1, 2017. |
