Corporate Finance

Under the Securities Act, a company that intends to raise capital by selling securities to the public must generally prepare a detailed disclosure document - a prospectus - for investors.  The prospectus must be filed with the Commission for review and acceptance before the securities can be sold in Manitoba.

The staff of the Corporate Finance Division are responsible for review of the prospectuses and other offering documents. The staff are also responsible for monitoring and reviewing continuous disclosure filings by issuers and for the collection of trading reports filed by corporate insiders.
