The IIAC is pleased to make available to member firms a standardized template agreement to be used voluntarily by executing dealers and portfolio managers when entering into service arrangements. Developed by the IIAC and the Portfolio Management Association of Canada (PMAC), the template agreement sets out the respective obligations of the Portfolio Manager and the IIROC Dealer in providing applicable services to their mutual clients, as well as their respective obligations to each other.

The template agreement benefits member firms by streamlining and harmonizing the various agreements in use by IIROC Dealers and Portfolio Managers to create an industry standard. Its Schedules provide parties with the necessary flexibility to account for any unique and specific elements in their commercial relationship.

IIAC members can access the template agreement by clicking here.
