NOTICE OF MINISTERIAL APPROVAL OF AMENDMENTS TO
NATIONAL INSTRUMENT 81-102 INVESTMENT FUNDS,
NATIONAL INSTRUMENT 81-104 COMMODITY POOLS,
NATIONAL INSTRUMENT 81-101 MUTUAL FUND PROSPECTUS DISCLOSURE,
NATIONAL INSTRUMENT 41-101 GENERAL PROSPECTUS REQUIREMENTS,

On December 6, 2018, the Ontario Minister of Finance approved amendments (the Rule Amendments) made by the Ontario Securities Commission to the following rules:

  • National Instrument 81-102 Investment Funds (NI 81-102)
  • National Instrument 81-104 Commodity Pools
  • National Instrument 81-101 Mutual Fund Prospectus Disclosure
  • National Instrument 41-101 General Prospectus Requirements
  • National Instrument 81-106 Investment Fund Continuous Disclosure
  • National Instrument 81-107 Independent Review Committee for Investment Funds

The Rule Amendments to NI 81-102 reflect one correction adopted by the Commission: the words “, divided by the fund’s net asset value” were deleted in subsection 2.9.1(2) of NI 81-102 before the Rule Amendments were approved by the Minister.

The Rule Amendments, as well as corresponding changes to commentaries and Companion Policies (the CP Changes), were published in Supplement 2 of the Bulletin on October 4, 2018. The same material is being published today in Chapter 5 of this Bulletin, except that today’s Chapter 5 reflects the one correction to the Rule Amendments.

The Rule Amendments and the CP Changes become effective on January 3, 2019.
