The Repeal of National Instrument 81-104 Alternative Mutual Funds
On January 29, 2024, the repeal of National Instrument 81-104 Alternative Mutual Funds will come into force.
Part 4 of National Instrument 81-104 Alternative Mutual Funds sets out the proficiency requirements for mutual fund restricted individuals for the distribution of alternative mutual funds.
The Canadian Securities Administrators members issued harmonized blanket orders to provide additional proficiency course options as the course options prescribed by the proficiency requirements pre-date the introduction of the alternative mutual funds regime and do not address the specific differences between conventional mutual funds and alternative mutual funds.
In Ontario, the blanket relief was issued by Ontario Instrument 81-506 Temporary Exemptions from National Instrument 81-104 Alternative Mutual Funds, with an expiry date of July 28, 2022. On February 24, 2022, OSC Rule 81-507 Extension to Ontario Instrument 81-506 Temporary Exemptions from National Instrument 81-104 Alternative Mutual Funds was published to extend the blanket relief for an additional 18-month period from July 29, 2022 to January 29, 2024.
The blanket orders issued by the Canadian Securities Administrators members have been codified by Interim Mutual Fund Dealer Rule 1000 Proficiency Standards for the Sale of Alternative Mutual Funds of the Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization
As the proficiency requirements in Part 4 of NI 81-104 Alternative Mutual Funds are now replaced with Interim Mutual Fund Dealer Rule 1000 Proficiency Standards for the Sale of Alternative Mutual Funds, National Instrument 81-104 Alternative Mutual Funds is unnecessary and will be repealed.
The full text of the the repeal of National Instrument 81-104 Alternative Mutual Funds is available in the Ontario Securities Commission’s Bulletin at (2023) 46 OSCB 10145 and on the Commission’s website at www.osc.ca.
