Securities – CSA Notice Regarding Coordinated Blanket Order 45-935 Exemptions from Certain Conditions of the Listed Issuer Financing Exemption

May 14, 2025 – The Financial and Consumer Affairs Authority of Saskatchewan along with other members of the Canadian Securities Administrators (the CSA or we) is publishing substantively harmonized relief from certain conditions of the listed issuer financing exemption (the Exemption) in Part 5A of National Instrument 45-106 Prospectus Exemptions (NI 45-106). The Exemption was adopted in November 2022 to provide a more efficient method of capital raising for reporting issuers that have securities listed on an exchange recognized by a securities regulatory authority in a jurisdiction of Canada and that have filed all timely and periodic disclosure documents required under Canadian securities legislation.

Every member of the CSA is implementing the relief through a local blanket order entitled Coordinated Blanket Order 45-935 Exemptions from Certain Conditions of the Listed Issuer Financing Exemption (the Blanket Order). The Blanket Order increases the capital raising limits, while adding some conditions on who an issuer can distribute securities to and is expected to allow listed reporting issuers to raise significantly more capital without impacting investor protection. The CSA is also updating the CSA Staff Notice 45-330 (Revised) Frequently Asked Questions about the Listed Issuer Financing Exemption (FAQ).

The Blanket Order will come into effect on May 15, 2025.
