TORONTO, Nov. 1, 2017 /CNW/ - A hearing has been scheduled before a Hearing Panel of the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC) to consider whether the panel should accept a Settlement Agreement entered into between IIROC staff and Christopher Rutledge.

The agreement concerns conduct involving a failure to fully and properly supervise individuals at his firm, and to ensure they identified, addressed, and disclosed potential or existing conflicts of interest.

The hearing is not open to the public, but will become open in the event that the panel accepts the agreement. If the agreement is accepted, the panel's decision and the Settlement Agreement will be made available at www.iiroc.ca.

Documents related to ongoing IIROC enforcement proceedings – including Reasons and Decisions of Hearing Panels – are posted on the IIROC website as they become available. Click here to search and access all IIROC enforcement documents.

Hearing Date: November 2, 2017 at 10:00 a.m.

Location: IIROC, 121 King Street West, Suite 2000, Toronto, Ontario

IIROC formally initiated the investigation into Mr. Rutledge's conduct in October 2014. The violations occurred while he was Chief Compliance Officer and Supervisor at Jacob Securities Inc.  Mr. Rutledge is no longer a registrant with an IIROC-regulated firm.   

The Notice of Motion announcing the settlement hearing is available at: http://docs.iiroc.ca/DisplayDocument.aspx?DocumentID=045638F920F244DF8C6E95A4DE843BB4&Language=en
