Transaction instructions
Financial institutions need to apply for regulatory approval under federal acts that the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (OSFI) is responsible for. To make our process as transparent as possible and improve our assessment times, we’ve created transaction instructions. They supply applicants with:
- what information we need to assess your application
- what we look for in applications
If you provide all the information and material we request, you can expect a more timely assessment of your application. We may request more information, if needed.
