Summary of our complaint handling policy<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Filing a complaint regarding our services<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We make sure complaints are assigned quickly and processed in a timely manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is a complaint?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A complaint expresses a reproach or dissatisfaction in respect of the services or products we offer and your expectation that we take action to address the complaint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You may, for example, expect a refund from us or for us to take action to address the situation giving rise to your complaint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to file a complaint<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You can file a complaint with us in writing using our online complaint form. If you are a resident of Qu\u00e9bec, you may also complete the form<\/a> from the Autorit\u00e9 des march\u00e9s financiers (AMF) and mail it to us. Your complaint will be forwarded to the Chief Compliance Officer of our firm who is responsible for complaint examination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Steps in the complaint process<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We will process your complaint according to the following steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. We acknowledge receipt of your complaint<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

We will send you an acknowledgement of receipt in writing within 10 days of receipt of your complaint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. We analyze the complaint<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

We will make sure we understand your complaint and what you expect from us. If necessary, we may contact you to request additional information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. We provide a written final response<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

We will provide you with a final response in writing within 60 days of receipt of your complaint. In our response, we will explain how we analyzed your complaint and what led to our response and, if possible, our proposed solution to your complaint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Extension of the period for providing our final response<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your complaint may take longer to process or be more complex than anticipated, in which case we may determine that additional time, not exceeding an additional 30 days, is required for the analysis of your complaint. We will notify you in writing if an extension is required, indicating the circumstances warranting the extension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Assessment of the offer and resolution of the complaint<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Take time to review our response or assess our offer to resolve your complaint. If we present an offer, we will give you time to assess and respond to it. The amount of time we give you should provide you with sufficient opportunity to seek the advice you need to make an informed decision. You can decide to accept or refuse the offer, or you can present a counteroffer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once we reach an agreement with you to resolve your complaint, we will give effect to the offer within 30 days unless we agree upon a different time period with you when it is in your interest to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. (For Qu\u00e9bec residents) Examination of the complaint record by the AMF<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

For each complaint, we create a record in which we keep all the information or documents required for the processing of your complaint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can contact us to request to have your complaint record examined by the AMF at any time if you are not satisfied with the response we provided or how your complaint was processed. We are required to send your complaint record to the AMF no later than 15 days following receipt of your request.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
