Late submissions carry hefty penalties and potential legal ramifications. Trust our proven track record to keep you on the safe side.

Before You Report Transactions

As an insider, you must submit your profile via (Form 55-102F1) and securities balance within 10 calendar days of becoming a reporting insider.

Insiders associated with SEDI issuers bear the responsibility of submitting precise and punctual details regarding their transactions. Essential components of these filings include:

  • Type of security involved
  • Date of the transaction
  • Nature of the transaction (e.g., purchase or sale)
  • Quantity of securities transacted
  • Price (For transactions with a monetary exchange. Note: Some transactions may not have an associated price.)

Issuer Profile and Event Reporting

We also act as filing agents for public companies (issuers) to meet their SEDI obligations under National Instrument 55-102.

Issuer Profile Supplement (Form 55-102F3)

  • • Initial filing required within 3 business days of becoming a SEDI issuer
  • • Establishes the list of all outstanding securities and classes held by insiders
  • • Must be promptly amended for new issuances to insiders, changes in security designations, securities ceasing to be outstanding, or other updates

Issuer Event Reports (Form 55-102F4)

Filed within 1 business day following an "issuer event" that affects all holdings of a security class proportionally (on a per-share basis). Common events include:

  • • Stock splits and consolidations (reverse splits)
  • • Stock dividends
  • • Amalgamations, mergers, and reorganizations
  • • Redesignations, reclassifications, and spin-offs
  • • Certain issuer-initiated conversions and other similar events

These reports notify insiders and the public, enabling accurate adjustment of insider holdings (often using Nature Code 37 for splits/consolidations).

We handle account setup, initial supplements, ongoing amendments, and timely event reports for issuers, ensuring full compliance and clean records for both the company and its insiders.

Understanding SEDI – A Brief Overview

What is SEDI?

SEDI is an online system used in Canada for the reporting of insider transactions. It's designed to facilitate the disclosure and public filing of insider reports by insiders of public companies. These reports are required by securities legislation and are intended to promote transparency in the markets.

Key Functions of SEDI:

  1. Filing Insider Reports: Insiders of public companies, such as directors, senior officers, or significant shareholders, are required to report their trades of the company's securities.
  2. Public Access: SEDI allows the public to view these insider reports, enhancing market transparency.
  3. Regulatory Compliance: It helps insiders comply with legal requirements regarding the reporting of their securities transactions.

Why is SEDI Important?

  • Transparency: It provides transparency in the market, allowing investors to see the trading activities of insiders.
  • Investor Confidence: This transparency can help in building investor confidence in the market.
  • Regulatory Oversight: It assists regulators in monitoring insider trading activities, thus helping in the prevention of illegal activities.
