TSX continuously seeks opportunities to improve the quality and integrity of the marketplace. With that aim in mind, TSX has introduced new original listing requirements ("OLRs") for corporate issuers seeking to list on TSX. These OLRs seek to ensure that our rules: (i) continue to reflect the current needs and expectations of Canadian and global capital market participants; (ii) provide clear and pragmatic listing requirements; and (iii) reduce the need for discretionary waivers and exemptions, thereby reducing issuer burden, while maintaining sound requirements to protect marketplace quality.

A guide covering these new OLRs, providing clear and transparent guidance, along with covering topics such as listing categories, sponsorship requirements, escrow considerations, and required documents to be filed with an original listing application, can be found here.
