IN THE MATTER OF Yves Tardif - Settlement
MONTRÉAL, April 14 /CNW/ - On March 1, 2010, a Hearing Panel of the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC) rejected a Settlement Agreement between IIROC Staff and Yves Tardif.
IIROC formally initiated the investigation into the Respondent's conduct on November 24, 2005. The alleged violations occurred while the Respondent was a Registered Representative with the Montréal Branch of iForum Securities Inc. The Respondent is no longer a registrant with an IIROC-regulated firm.
A subsequent hearing will be held at a later date. A new Enforcement Notice will be published to this effect.
