2019 FSCO and DICO Stakeholder Survey
Engaging with industry partners, consumers (including pension plan beneficiaries and credit union members), and other stakeholders is an important part of our regulatory process. Prior to the launch of FSRA in June 2019, FSCO and DICO conducted an online stakeholder survey to gather insights and recommendations on how to improve.
