Act and Regulations
New Brunswick’s securities laws consist of the Securities Act itself, rules or regulations made under the Securities Act, and any decisions made by the Commission or its Executive Director. The Commission also issues notices, which outline the Commission’s viewpoint on securities markets in New Brunswick.
The Commission is responsible for the administration of New Brunswick’s securities laws and has authority to make rules for the purposes of carrying out the Securities Act.
Securities regulations are created by the Lieutenant-Governor-in-Council. The General Regulation establishes the process the Commission must follow to create rules and conduct hearings.
