If you missed the Securities Law program that LESA ran last month, you’re in luck. The program was recorded and is available as a seminar on demand – letting you stream videos of speaker presentations and download course materials as PDFs.
Program Topics
As the program chair and faculty indicate below, this program has plenty to offer both to junior lawyers and to legal support staff.
The materials … were developed and presented by experienced practitioners. They not only cover topics that would comprise a comprehensive introduction to securities law for junior lawyers but also discuss practical aspects, including examples of documents and timing considerations. … The topics covered by this course include sources of securities law, the regulatory regime, continuous disclosure, the prospectus requirement, and corporate transactions.”
– Chris Peng, seminar chair
The program … [provides] an overview of the fundamentals of certain key aspects of applicable securities law in Alberta, … [including] a basic understanding of ‘what is a security’ – which is not always obvious and extends beyond shares. [You] will also learn about the numerous regulators that reporting issuers must be mindful of in complying with securities laws – including various Canadian exchanges and securities commissions – and will receive an overview of the continuous disclosure requirements for reporting issuers and the ancillary SEDAR filing requirements. … [You’ll also gain] a practical understanding of how the initial public offering process works, the key participants involved, and the timelines from kick off to closing.”
– Leanne C. Krawchuk, seminar faculty
