Duplicate profile detected. Cannot continue
|
The insider or agent is creating an insider profile using the Create insider profile button from their home page. Data was entered on the Create insider profile (Form 55-102F1) screen and upon clicking Next, the system indicates that there appears to be an insider profile for the insider already present on the system. SEDI stops the creation process from continuing because each insider must only have one insider profile.
To exit the Create insider profile (Form 55-102F1) screen, use the top navigation bar to select Insider or Agent home page to return to the home page. Try adding the insider profile as follows:
Agent: click Agent home page, click the Add insider button, locate the insider profile using the Search for insider screen, then select the insider profile from the View search results screen which will add the insider to the insider list on the agent home page,
Insider: click Insider home page, click the Link your SEDI Account to your Insider Profile button, locate the insider profile using the Search for insider screen, then select the insider profile from the View search results screen which will link the insider profile to the user account.
Note: the user must have the applicable access key for the insider profile being linked to the agent or insider account in order for SEDI to allow access to the insider profile.
Alternatively, the insider or agent can also logout and select Access public filings on SEDI and select View insider information to search for insider profiles under the same name. This will provide more details from the insider’s summary information if required to determine whether a previous insider profile exists.
If the discrepancy cannot be resolved, contact the CSA Service Desk at 1-800-219-5381 for assistance.

General or private remarks to the securities regulators explaining the reason for the deletion should be included

Issuer not found
|
There are two reasons an issuer may not be found:
1. The issuer may have changed its name due to a business acquisition (merger, takeover etc.) The insider will need to set up an opening balance of shares for the new issuer for each type of security held. The insider may want to include an explanation in the General remarks field.
2. The issuer has not completed an issuer profile supplement. Your local securities regulators can verify this for you. If this is the case, the insider should contact the issuer to have this rectified.
If a filing is due immediately, then the insider can file under the Temporary Hardship Exemption.
