About this statute

This part defines key terms used in the Securities Act, including adviser, benchmark, benchmark administrator, and director. This provision defines many securities-law terms used in the Act. This part sets up the securities regulator in the Northwest Territories and gives the Superintendent powers to delegate, issue conditions and exemptions, serve records, summon banks, and share information. This segment lets the Superintendent keep certain records confidential, order filings and investigations, compel evidence, and seek court appointments of receivers or liquidators. The Superintendent can control evidence, require testimony under oath, and issue enforcement orders, including interim orders, cease-trading orders, and public-interest orders, with appeal rights to the Court of Appeal.
