Securities, Corporate Finance, and Capital Markets

Our lawyers help our clients unlock capital through both the private and public markets. From a private capital perspective, we advise issuers, exempt market dealers, investment fund managers, and portfolio managers on all interactions with the regulatory regime in Alberta, including private placements, prospectus offerings, registration, and on-going regulatory compliance.

Our team also advises public issuers on multi-jurisdictional debt and equity offerings, including initial public offerings (IPOs), secondary offerings, and convertible debt and rights offerings. We have extensive experience assisting clients with compliance issues such as continuous disclosure and insider trading requirements for both issuers and individuals. Additionally, we represent issuers seeking stock exchange listings and guide them through initial listing and exchange compliance on the Toronto Stock Exchange, TSX Venture Exchange, and Canadian Securities Exchange. Our securities litigation practice covers the defense of professional negligence and breach of fiduciary duty actions, class actions, shareholder actions, and other securities-related civil proceedings.
