TSX Venture Exchange Daily Bulletins for November 18, 2004
NEWS RELEASE TRANSMITTED BY CCNMatthews FOR: TSX VENTURE EXCHANGE - DAILY BULLETINS NOVEMBER 18, 2004 - 16:55 ET TSX Venture Exchange Daily Bulletins for November 18, 2004 VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(CCNMatthews - Nov. 18, 2004) - /T/ TSX VENTURE COMPANIES BULLETIN TYPE: Notice to Issuers BULLETIN DATE: November 18, 2004 Re: Chief Financial Officers of Issuers must be Financially Literate In an effort to improve the corporate governance practices of TSX Venture Exchange Issuers, effective immediately, the Exchange is revising section 2.3 of Policy 3.1 - Directors, Officers and Corporate Governance to require that the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of every Issuer must be financially literate, as defined by Multilateral Instrument 52-110 Audit Committees. That instrument states that an individual is financially literate if he or she has the ability to read and understand a set of financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to the breadth and complexity of the issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by the Issuer's financial statements. The Exchange expects Issuers to ensure that their CFOs are financially literate. Although the Exchange expects that this change will affect very few Issuers, if an Issuer is concerned in this regard, it should contact Exchange staff. The Exchange is of the view that it is important that the key person preparing an Issuer's financial statements be qualified to carry out that function. The Exchange also believes that this change maintains its high standards and leads to a further enhancement of the integrity of the emerging markets. If you have questions regarding this change, please contact: In British Columbia: Mani Sanghera, Phone: 604-488-3124, email: mani.sanghera@tsxventure.com In Alberta: Joanne Butz, Phone: 403-218-2820, email: joanne.butz@tsxventure.com Matt Bootle, Phone: 877-884-2369, email: matt.bootle@tsxventure.com In Quebec: Louis Doyle, Phone: 514-788-2407, email: louis.doyle@tsxventure.com TYPE DE BULLETIN : Avis aux emetteurs DATE DU BULLETIN : 18 novembre 2004 Objet : Obligation pour le chef de la direction des finances des emetteurs de posseder des competences financieres Dans l'intention d'ameliorer les pratiques de regie d'entreprise des emetteurs inscrits a la Bourse de croissance TSX, avec effet immediat, la Bourse modifie le paragraphe 2.3 de la Politique 3.1 - Administrateurs, dirigeants et regie d'entreprise afin d'exiger que le chef de la direction des finances de chaque emetteur possede des competences financieres, au sens du Reglement 52-110 sur le comite de verification. Selon ce reglement, une personne physique possede des competences financieres si elle a la capacite de lire et de comprendre un jeu d'etats financiers qui presentent des questions comptables d'une ampleur et d'un degre de complexite comparables dans l'ensemble a ceux des questions dont on peut raisonnablement penser qu'elles seront soulevees par les etats financiers de l'emetteur. La Bourse s'attend a ce que les emetteurs veillent a ce que leur chef de la direction des finances possede des competences financieres. Selon la Bourse, ce changement devrait toucher tres peu d'emetteurs, mais tout emetteur qui a des doutes a ce sujet est prie de communiquer avec le personnel de la Bourse. La Bourse estime qu'il est important que la personne cle chargee de dresser les etats financiers d'un emetteur soit qualifiee pour s'acquitter de cette tache. La Bourse considere aussi que ce changement maintient ses normes elevees et favorise une plus grande integrite des marches emergents.
