MONTR\u00c9AL and\u00a0TORONTO and PARIS, April 20, 2026 \/CNW\/ – The\u00a0Autorit\u00e9 des march\u00e9s financiers in Qu\u00e9bec (AMF\u00a0Qu\u00e9bec), the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) and the Autorit\u00e9 des March\u00e9s Financiers in France (AMF\u00a0France) entered into an agreement<\/a> intended to support the initial cross-listing of securities on an exchange, by way of prospectus, in Canada and France by establishing a new collaborative procedure that will facilitate dialogue and information sharing between securities regulators in the two countries.<\/p>\n

“Canada’s capital markets are navigating a period of rapid change shaped by global economic uncertainty,” said Yves Ouellet, President and CEO of the AMF Qu\u00e9bec. “In this context, the AMF Qu\u00e9bec and OSC continue supporting the competitiveness of Canada’s capital markets, keeping with the commitment taken by the Canadian Securities Administrators in April 2025.”<\/p>\n

“Co-operation and information sharing across global jurisdictions is important to facilitate the regulation of cross-listed issuers,” said Grant Vingoe, CEO of the OSC. “This agreement is another way we can support Canadian issuers by opening up new possibilities.”<\/p>\n

“In recent years, the AMF France has demonstrated its ability to support the attractiveness of the French capital markets, which is one of our key strategic priorities,” said Marie-Anne Barbat-Layani, Chair of the AMF France. “We pursue this ambition by promoting the French vision of a financial system that is robust, resilient, innovative and competitive, attentive to investor protection and geared towards financing the economy. This agreement is of great importance and confirms both the competitiveness of the Paris financial centre and the excellent relationships we maintain with our Canadian counterparts at AMF Qu\u00e9bec and the OSC.”<\/p>\n

Under the agreement, Canadian and French companies seeking to cross-list their securities in France and Canada by way of a prospectus will have to comply with the regulatory requirements of both countries and applicable exchange requirements. The agreement does not provide regulatory relief. However, Canadian and French companies will benefit from increased support and assistance from the AMF Qu\u00e9bec, OSC and AMF France throughout the prospectus review process.<\/p>\n
