Nothing but the truth

Article Abstract:

Canada's Toronto Stock Exchange (TSE) is addressing the issues of standards, disclosure and regulation of financial information in a special report called Responsible Corporate Disclosure: A Search for Balance. The report presents legislation that would boost corporate liability for all financial information that moves stock markets. The report effectively makes it less difficult for investors to file lawsuits and win compensation when they suffer losses in the stock market due to erroneous or insufficient information.

Demystifying dilution

Article Abstract:

By not purchasing the shares, the parent compnay is deemed to have sold shares but accounting procedure for the gains or losses on the transaction is ambiguous. Dilution gains do not have to be disclosed in Canada and this can lead to misleading financial statements and manipulation of earnings. Further aspects of the status and tax implication of dilution gains are discussed.
