Access to Advice

Consistent with the strategic objective outlined in the Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization (CIRO) Strategic Plan FY 2025-2027, a key area of focus for CIRO is enabling greater access to advice that meets the changing needs of the investor. We are considering new policy to allow for greater access to advice to occur through the expansion of advice options that can be made available to investors across CIRO-regulated firms. These may include hybrid and automated advice alternatives which are also more cost-efficient, more scalable and may be less personalized than those historically provided. The result will support and protect a greater number of investors through the delivery of regulated advice to guide their investment decisions.
