Securities – The Securities Commission (Adoption of National Instruments) (NI 44-102) Amendment Regulations, 2025

November 27, 2025 – Today the Financial and Consumer Affairs Authority of Saskatchewan is publishing the Securities Commission (Adoption of National Instruments) (NI 44-102) Amendment Regulations, 2025.

The Amendment Regulations introduce an expedited shelf prospectus regime for well-known seasoned issuers (WKSIs) in Canada. Specifically, the Amendment Regulations permit issuers that satisfy the qualification criteria and certain conditions to:

  • file a final base shelf prospectus and be deemed to receive a receipt for that prospectus without first filing a preliminary base shelf prospectus or undergoing any regulatory review,
  • omit certain disclosure from the base shelf prospectus (for example, the aggregate dollar amount of securities that may be raised under the prospectus), and
  • benefit from receipt effectiveness for a period of 37 months from the date of its deemed issuance, subject to the requirement for the issuer to reassess its qualification to use the WKSI regime annually.

The Amendment Regulations are intended to foster capital formation by WKSIs in the Canadian public markets. Eligible reporting issuers will have more flexibility in structuring a base shelf prospectus offering, have improved certainty regarding transaction timing and be permitted to forgo certain requirements that do not, in this context, provide meaningful disclosure to investors. The Amendment Regulations will also more closely align the timing of Canadian prospectus filings with those applicable in the United States (U.S.) and better facilitate cross-border offerings.

The Amendment Regulations will come into force on November 28, 2025.
