Notice of Commission Approval – Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada – Amendments to IFRS version of Form 1 – Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC)

The Ontario Securities Commission approved the amendments to IIROC's IFRS version of Form 1 intended to make three clarification changes. In addition, the British Columbia Securities Commission did not object to, and the Alberta Securities Commission, the Autorité des marchés financiers, the New Brunswick Securities Commission, the Nova Scotia Securities Commission, the Financial Services Regulation Division of the Department of Government Services for Newfoundland and Labrador, the Ontario Securities Commission, and the Saskatchewan Financial Services Commission have approved the above-noted amendments.

Two of the proposed amendments are corrections that were omitted from the initial implementation of IFRS Form 1 that took place during 2010. The remaining proposed change is to correct an unintended title change to one line on Schedule 11A when this Schedule was amended to adopt IFRS. The amendments are effective for reporting periods ending on or after July 31, 2013.

The proposed amendments were published for comment on February 7, 2013, at (2013) 36 OSCB 1601 for a 90 day comment period. No comments were received.

A copy of the IIROC Notice is attached.

IIROC Notice 13-0175

June 27, 2013

Amendments to IFRS version of Form 1

On November 28, 2012, the Board of Directors (the Board) of the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC) approved the proposed amendments to the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) version of Form 1 to make minor clarification changes throughout Form 1. The amendments were reclassified as "Public Comment Rules" at the request of the securities commissions and published for comment. No public comments were received. The amendments are effective for reporting periods ending on or after July 31, 2013.

Summary of the nature and purpose of the amendments

The amendments make clarification changes to the IFRS version of Form 1 and were reclassified as "Public Comment Rules". The following are the amendments to the IFRS version of Form 1:

(a) General Notes and Definitions

(i) Adding the valuation of subordinated loan as a prescribed IFRS departure in the General Notes and Definitions to Form 1: The purpose of the change is to clarify that IIROC requires subordinated loans to be reported at face value, which is a departure from IFRS. Under IFRS, any liability is subject to revaluation, which would mean a Dealer Member must discount the value of the subordinated loan and the change in the value of the subordinated loan must be reflected on the income statement. Under certain circumstances, the discount could be material. The change would add this prescribed IFRS departure to Note 2 of the General Notes and Definitions to Form 1.

(b) Statement C (Statement of early warning excess and early warning reserve), the Notes and Instructions to Statement C, Statement D (Statement of free credit segregation amount), and Schedules 6A (Tax recoveries), 13 (Early warning tests -- Level 1) and 13A (Early warning tests -- Level 2)

(i) Adding the line item "Finance leases and lease related liabilities" as a deduction to the line item "Non-current liabilities" in Statement C, accommodating them in the Notes and Instructions to Line 5 in the Notes and Instructions to Statement C, and renumbering the line items on Statement C and the Notes and Instructions to Statement C, accordingly: The purpose of the changes is to make the impact of "non-current portion of finance leases and lease-related liabilities" neutral to the early warning excess (EWE) and early warning reserve (EWR) calculations. When the IFRS version of Form 1 was first implemented, finance lease assets (previously called capitalized leases) were moved from "Non-Allowable Assets" to a separate asset category to make their impact neutral to risk adjusted capital (RAC). However, the non-current portion of finance leases and lease-related liabilities were not considered and as a result, they unintentionally increased the EWE and EWR amounts calculated for Dealer Members.

(ii) Renumbering the line references on Statement D and Schedules 6A, 13 and 13A that were affected by the addition of the line item "Finance leases and lease related liabilities" in (b)(i) immediately above.

(c) Schedule 11A (Details of unhedged foreign currencies calculation for individual currencies with margin required greater than or equal to $5,000)

(i) Renaming Line 13 on Schedule 11A: The purpose of the change is to correct an unintended title change to Line 13 when the Schedule was amended to adopt IFRS. Line 13's title "Net weighted value" will be changed back to "Greater of long or (short) weighted values".

FORM 1 -- GENERAL NOTES AND DEFINITIONS

GENERAL NOTES:

1. Each Dealer Member must comply with the requirements in Form 1 as approved and amended from time to time by the board of directors of the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (the Corporation).

Form 1 is a special purpose report that includes financial statements and schedules, and is to be prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), except as prescribed by the Corporation.

Each Dealer Member must complete and file all of these statements and schedules.

The pre--IFRS changeover Joint Regulatory Financial Questionnaire and Report must be used by Dealer Members who have elected to defer the adoption of IFRS and have received written approval of the deferral from the Corporation.

2. The following are Form 1 IFRS departures as prescribed by the Corporation:

	Prescribed IFRS departure
Client and broker trading balances	For client and broker trading balances, the Corporation allows the netting of receivables from and payables to the same counterparty. A Dealer Member may choose to report client and broker trading balances in accordance with IFRS.
One--time transitional relief	As a one--time transitional relief for the first Form 1 prepared under the basis of IFRS with prescribed departures and prescribed accounting treatments, the Corporation does not require comparative financial data.
	In addition, the Corporation does not require the opening IFRS balance sheet as part of the first Form 1 prepared under the basis of IFRS with prescribed departures and prescribed accounting treatments.
	And as such, the Dealer Member is not required to provide the reconciliation between previous Canadian GAAP and IFRS.
	The Corporation requires that the preparation of the opening balance sheet is as at the conversion date (the first day of the first fiscal year under IFRS). A Dealer Member will file the opening balance sheet as Statement G and as stipulated by the Corporation, which is prior to the filing of the first monthly financial report (MFR) prepared under IFRS with prescribed departures and prescribed accounting treatments.
Preferred shares	Preferred shares issued by the Dealer Member and approved by the Corporation are classified as shareholders' capital.
Presentation	Statements A and E contain terms and classifications (such as allowable and non-allowable assets) that are not defined under IFRS. For Statement E, the profit (loss) for the year on discontinued operations is presented on a pre--tax basis (as opposed to after--tax).
	In addition, specific balances may be classified or presented on Statements A, E and F in a manner that differs from IFRS requirements. The General Notes and Definitions, and the applicable Notes and Instructions to the Statements of Form 1, should be followed in those instances where departures from IFRS presentation exist.
	Statements B, C, and D are supplementary financial information, which are not statements contemplated under IFRS.
Separate financial statements on a non-consolidated basis	Consolidation of subsidiaries is not permitted for regulatory reporting purposes, except for related companies that meet the definition of a "related company" in Dealer Member Rule 1 and the Corporation has approved the consolidation.
	Because Statement E only reflects the operational results of the Dealer Member, a Dealer Member must not include the income (loss) of an investment accounted for by the equity method.
Statement of cash flow	A statement of cash flow is not required as part of Form 1.
<<Subordinated loan>>	<<For regulatory reporting purposes, a subordinated loan must be reported at face value. Discounting of the subordinated loan amount is not permitted.>>
Valuation	The "market value of securities" definition remains unchanged from the pre--IFRS changeover Joint Regulatory Financial Questionnaire and Report.

3. The following are Form 1 prescribed accounting treatments based on available IFRS alternatives:

	Prescribed accounting treatment
Hedge accounting	Hedge accounting is not permitted for regulatory reporting purposes. All security and derivative positions of a Dealer Member must be marked--to--market at the reporting date. Gains or losses of the hedge positions must not be deferred to a future point in time.
Securities owned and sold short as held--for--trading	A Dealer Member must categorize all inventory positions as held--for--trading financial instruments. These security positions must be marked--to--market.
	Because the Corporation does not permit the use of the available for sale and held--to--maturity categories, a Dealer Member must not include other comprehensive income (OCI) and will not have a corresponding reserve account relating to marking--to--market available for sale security positions.
Valuation of a subsidiary	A Dealer Member must value subsidiaries at cost.

4. These statements and schedules are prepared in accordance with the Dealer Member rules.

5. For purposes of these statements and schedules, the accounts of related companies that meet the definition of a "related company" in Dealer Member Rule 1 may be consolidated.

6. For the purposes of the statements and schedules, the capital calculations must be on a trade date reporting basis unless specified otherwise in the Notes and Instructions to Form 1.

7. Dealer Members may determine margin deficiencies for clients, brokers and dealers on either a settlement date basis or trade date basis. Dealer Members may also determine margin deficiencies for acceptable institutions, acceptable counterparties, regulated entities and investment counselors' accounts as a block on either a settlement date basis or trade date basis and the remaining clients, brokers and dealer accounts on the other basis. In each case, Dealer Members must do so for all such accounts and consistently from period to period.

8. Comparative figures on all statements are only required at the audit date. As a transition exemption for the changeover to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) from Canadian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (CGAAP), Dealer Members are not required to file comparative information for the preceding financial year as part of the first audited Form 1, which is based on IFRS except for prescribed departures and prescribed accounting treatments stipulated in the general notes and definitions of Form 1.

9. All statements and schedules must be expressed in Canadian dollars and must be rounded to the nearest thousand.

10. Supporting details should be provided -- as required -- showing breakdown of any significant amounts that have not been clearly described on the statements and schedules.

11. Mandatory security counts. All securities except those held in segregation or safekeeping shall be counted once a month, or monthly on a cyclical basis. Those held in segregation and safekeeping must be counted once in the year in addition to the count as at the year--end audit date.

FORM 1, PART I -- STATEMENT C

NOTES AND INSTRUCTIONS

The Early Warning system is designed to provide advance warning of a Dealer Member encountering financial difficulties. It will anticipate capital shortages and/or liquidity problems and encourage Dealer Members to build a capital cushion.

Line 1 -- If Risk Adjusted Capital of the Dealer Member is less than:

(a) 5% of total margin required (Line 1112 above), then the Dealer Member is designated as being in Early Warning category Level 1, or

(b) 2% of total margin required (Line 1112 above), then the Dealer Member is designated as being in Early Warning category Level 2,

and the applicable sanctions outlined in the Corporation rules will apply.

Lines 2 and 3 -- These items are deducted from RAC because they are illiquid or the receipt is either out of the Dealer Member's control or contingent.

Line 4 -- Pursuant to the Notes and Instructions for the completion of Statement B, Line 20, where the entity would otherwise qualify as an acceptable securities location except for the fact that the Dealer Member has not entered into a written custodial agreement with the entity, as required by Corporation rules, the Dealer Member will be required to deduct an amount up to 10% of the market value of the securities held in custody with the entity, in the calculation of its Early Warning Reserve. Please refer to the detailed calculation formula set out to the Notes and Instructions for the completion of Statement B, Line 20 to determine the capital requirement to be reported on Statement C, Line 4.

Line 5 -- Non-current liabilities (other than subordinated loans and, non-current portion of lease liabilities -- leasehold inducements, and non-current portion of finance leases and lease-related liabilities) are added back to RAC as they are not current obligations of the Dealer Member and can be used as financing.

Line 910 -- This add--back ensures that the Dealer Member is not penalized at the Early Warning level for accruing income.

Line 1011 -- If Early Warning Excess is negative, the Dealer Member is designated as being in Early Warning category Level 2 and the sanctions outlined in the Corporation rules will apply.

Line 1213 -- If the Early Warning Reserve is negative, the Dealer Member is designated as being in Early Warning category Level 1 and the sanctions outlined in the Corporation rules will a

Line 3 -- If negative, then Line 6 equals Line 4 plus Line 5, i.e. Dealer Member is required to segregate 100% of client free credits.

Lines 4 and 5 -- Free credit balances in RRSP and other similar accounts should not be included. Refer to Schedule 4 -- Notes and Instructions for discussion of trade versus settlement date reporting of free credit balances. For purposes of this statement, a free credit is:

(a) For cash and margin accounts -- the credit balance less an amount equal to the aggregate of the market value of short positions and regulatory margin on those shorts.

(b) For futures accounts -- any credit balance less an amount equal to the aggregate of margin required to carry open futures contracts and/or futures contracts option positions less equity in those contracts plus deficits in those contracts, provided that such aggregate amount may not exceed the dollar amount of the credit balance.

Line 6 -- If Nil, no further calculation on this Statement need be done.

Line 7 -- The trust must be an obligation binding the Dealer Member (the trustee) to deal with the free credits over which it has control (the trust property), for the benefit of the client (the beneficiary). The trust property must be clearly identified as such even if residing with an acceptable institution.

FUNDS HELD IN TRUST FOR RRSP AND OTHER SIMILAR ACCOUNTS ARE NOT TO BE INCLUDED IN THIS CALCULATION.

Line 8-- The securities to be included are bonds, debentures, treasury bills and other securities with a term of 1 year or less, of or guaranteed by the Government of Canada or a Province of Canada, the United Kingdom, the United States of America and any other national foreign government (provided such other foreign government is a party to the Basel Accord) which are segregated and held separate and apart as the Dealer Member's property.

Line 10 -- If negative, then a segregation deficiency exists, and the Dealer Member must expeditiously take the most appropriate action required to settle the segregation deficiency.

The Dealer Member must provide an explanation of how the deficiency was corrected as well as the date of correction.
