The Mutual Fund Dealers Association of Canada (MFDA) is seeking new candidates for its key policy advisory committee.

The self-regulatory organization is looking for senior compliance staff from fund dealers to serve on the committee, which advises MFDA staff on regulatory and policy initiatives, and industry trends and practices.

Members of the committee, which meets at least quarterly, are expected to have an excellent knowledge of securities law and mutual fund regulation. Particular expertise in an area of special interest to the MFDA may also be a factor in selection, it notes.

The committee’s members are chosen by the regulators president and CEO, Mark Gordon, based on recommendations from MFDA staff.

Qualified individuals interested in serving on the PAC should forward an up-to-date résumé
together with a brief covering letter outlining relevant industry experience to the attention of Paige Ward at pward@mfda.ca.

The deadline for applications is April 18.
