April 13, 2016
The Canadian Securities Exchange announces three proposed changes to its trading fee schedule that will take effect on May 2, 2016, subject to regulatory approval. These changes apply to CSE’s market making programme.
An inverted fee will apply to trades with GMF eligible orders in Designated Securities:
|
Active Rebate |
Passive Fee |
Designated Securities & GMF Order |
-$0.0014 |
$0.0018 |
If an order is not GMF eligible, the passive side will earn a rebate and the incoming order will be assessed a fee based on the standard maker/taker model.
For non-GMF eligible orders on all securities, the active side of the trade for continuous auction market trades will be assessed fees based on the standard maker/taker model ($.0025/share for stocks priced at or above $1.00, with two tiers on a take/take basis for stocks priced below $1.00).
The new fees are intended to significantly reduce costs for dealers, in particular when executing agency orders in very active stocks on Canadian exchanges. The updated list of Designated Securities and complete Trading Fee schedule are available on the CSE website.
