Proposals for a Canada mutual funds law / by James C. Baillie, Warren M.H. Grover.: RG23-19/1974E-PDF

"This report proposes the adoption of significant new legislation. It seems appropriate in the introduction to inquire what need the legislation is designed to meet and to review some of the approaches taken in arriving at proposals to meet that need. The IOS scandal, where Canadian organized mutual funds operating virtually unregulated in the overseas markets declined catastrophically in value and did great damage to Canada's reputation with foreign investors, would alone be sufficient to indicate a need for new federal legislation in Canada. But the need would exist apart from this evidence"--Introduction, page 3.
