IIROC Study Of The Impact Of The Dark Rule Amendments
IIROC has undertaken a study of the impacts of the Dark Rule Amendments implemented on October 15, 20121 using IIROC’s database of confidential regulatory market data, consisting of all orders and trades executed on all Canadian equity markets. The regulatory objective of this change was to establish a framework that recognised the contribution of dark orders to the post-trade price discovery process and their value to certain investors, while balancing this against the need to protect pre-trade (lit market) price discovery, ensure meaningful price improvement and establish a level playing field between transparent marketplaces and dark pools.As expected, there was an immediate and dramatic decline in dark trading on October 15, 2012. While some marketplaces have since increased their market share, dark trading ingeneral has not returned to previous levels.

Investment Industry Regulatory Organization Of Canada: Impact of the Dark Rule Amendments - Trading Review And Analysis
On October 15, 2012, following a lengthy industry consultation by the Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA) and the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC), IIROC implemented a dark liquidity framework. Amendments to the Universal Market Integrity Rules (UMIR) required that small orders which interact with dark must receive meaningful price improvement, and lit orders must trade before dark orders at the same price on the same marketplace. The regulatory objective of this change was to establish a framework that recognized the contribution of dark orders to the post-trade price discovery process and their value to certain investors, while balancing this against the need to protect lit market price discovery, ensure meaningful price improvement and establish a level playing field between transparent marketplaces and dark pools. In introducing this new regulatory framework, IIROC recognized there might be a cost to certain trading segments; however, the policy was proactive in protecting the integrity of the price discovery process.

Remarks Before The 2015 Baruch College Financial Reporting Conference, James Schnurr, SEC Chief Accountant, May 7, 2015
ooking forward
Good morning and thank you for the introduction. I am happy to be with you today and it is my pleasure to share the stage with Jim Kroeker, who certainly has a unique perspective having served as the SEC Chief Accountant prior to becoming the Vice Chairman of the FASB. As I have previously stated, when I arrived at the Commission last October, Chair White asked me to make a recommendation to her as to what action, if any, the Commission should take regarding the further incorporation of IFRS into the U.S. capital markets. In December, I gave a speech that mentioned a potential alternative of allowing domestic issuers to provide IFRS-based information as a supplement to U.S. GAAP financial statements without requiring reconciliation. I thought it would be helpful to spend a few minutes this morning providing you with a brief update on some of the recent activities of OCA, as well as some of the current thinking with respect to convergence and IFRS.
