The multijurisdictional disclosure system (MJDS) permits eligible Canadian issuers to publicly offer securities in the United States by using a prospectus that is prepared principally in accordance with Canadian disclosure requirements. The MJDS also enables these issuers to substantially satisfy their reporting obligations by using their Canadian continuous disclosure documents under the cover of the applicable MJDS form. As a leading adviser on matters relating to the MJDS, Davies has updated this informative guide, which provides the reader with a general insight into offering securities and reporting in the United States using the MJDS.
