Verify before you rely
Ask which legal entity provides a particular transaction, what registration applies and where the official record can be checked. Registration can vary by product and province.

Regulation for the Canadian market
Regulatory status does not prevent losses and must not be read as an endorsement of a strategy or digital asset.
| Jurisdiction | Regulator | Registration / regulatory basis |
|---|---|---|
| Canada | CIRO; complaints may be escalated to OBSI where applicable | Complies with applicable Canadian requirements for client onboarding, identity verification, financial-crime controls and complaint handling. Any dealer registration connected to a transaction is confirmed with the service provider before the client proceeds. |
| Federal financial-crime framework | FINTRAC requirements may apply to the relevant service provider | Complies with applicable client identification, recordkeeping, monitoring and reporting duties based on the provider's actual business model. |
| Provincial and territorial securities context | Relevant provincial or territorial securities authority | Complies with applicable securities requirements where an activity or instrument falls within that authority's mandate. |
What CIRO and OBSI references mean
CIRO oversees investment dealers, mutual fund dealers and trading activity on Canadian debt and equity marketplaces within its mandate. A reference to CIRO is relevant only where a dealer or activity is within that framework. We do not use the name to imply that every product or platform function is approved.
OBSI provides independent dispute-resolution services for participating banking and investment firms. A client who completes the internal complaint process may be able to take an eligible unresolved matter to OBSI. The Complaints Process explains the route without suggesting that OBSI decides every type of issue.
Financial-crime controls
Identity checks, risk assessment and transaction monitoring protect the integrity of the service, but they can also create requests for documents or delays.
Know your client
Identity, address and account information are checked before certain functions become available. Additional review may be required when information cannot be verified.
Risk-based monitoring
Activity may be reviewed for unusual patterns, source-of-funds concerns, sanctions exposure or signs that an account is controlled by someone else.
Records and reporting
Records are retained and disclosures to competent authorities are made only where a legal duty or valid process applies.
Deposit and asset protection distinctions
Cash deposits with a member institution may be eligible for CDIC coverage, subject to its rules. Eligible securities held by a member investment dealer may be covered by CIPF, subject to its limits. Crypto and other digital assets are generally not covered by CDIC or CIPF.
Coverage depends on the institution, account, property and circumstances. It does not protect against a decline in market value. Before transferring money or assets, identify who will hold them, whether that organization is a member of the relevant protection fund and which exclusions or limits apply.
Transparency and continuing obligations
Policies and provider arrangements can change as services develop or Canadian requirements evolve. Material updates are reflected in the relevant documents. Clients should review notices, keep profile information current and ask support when a product, custody arrangement or fee is unclear.
Neither registration nor compliance controls guarantee profitability, liquidity or uninterrupted access. Market volatility, provider outages and operational errors remain possible. The Risk Disclosure should be read before account activation and again whenever the client materially changes a strategy.
