Overview

In recent years, investment advisers in Canada and the U.S. have begun to offer automated, online investment advisory services. Referred to as “online advisers” or “robo advisers”, these technology-enabled services have attracted the interest of securities regulators, the financial press and the investing public. This Fall, Canadian securities regulators published guidance regarding online advice and cautioned that Canadian registration rules are “technology neutral”. Unlike in the United States, Canadian securities regulators have not approved fully-automated “robo advisers” that provide services with little or no involvement by registered individuals.  

Join Osler for a webinar designed to take a closer look at both the Canadian and US regulation of online advisers. The webinar will feature expert views from Osler and Carter, Ledyard & Milburn LLP, a NY-based law firm.

Presenters:

  • John Black, Osler
  • Blair Wiley, Osler
  • Ethan Silver, Carter Ledyard
