TMX is also pleased to announce that we have received regulatory approval to introduce the revised fees for trading on Toronto Stock Exchange and TSX Venture Exchange listed securities. The new competitive fees for Conditional Orders will take effect on February 1, 2022. The updated fee schedules can be found here for TSX and TSXV.
For more details, please see Equities Trading Notice 2021-022 announcing the launch of TSX Conditional orders, the Equities Trading Notice 2021-023 with the original TSX Conditionals Fee Schedule, and the landing page for this initiative - TSX DRK Conditionals.
Additionally, TMX would like to announce the extension of our Conditional Order enforcement evaluation period to March 31, 2022. In TMX's Notice of Proposed Amendments and Request for Comments (OSC Notice), we announced a 90-day assessment period to allow time to analyze usage and patterns of Conditional orders to better determine appropriate thresholds for the enforcement and scoring system. This extension will allow TMX additional time and data to determine these thresholds.
