IIROC urges dealers to participate in business continuity tests
On November 10, the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC) provided an update on its testing of Dealer Members' business continuity plans. While the tests are conducted on a voluntary basis, IIROC also stated that it "strongly urges" all members to participate in such tests as they "represent a valuable opportunity for Dealer Members to supplement their respective mandatory, in house annual tests which are required under IIROC regulation."
