Peter A. Dunne

Peter works within the firm's securities regulatory practice, focusing on registration matters for all categories of dealers, advisers and underwriters. Peter’s practice includes mutual funds, venture capital funds, limited partnerships and other investment vehicles, public and private financings, stock exchange listings, as well as mergers and acquisitions. Peter presently acts for a number of registered dealers and advisors, investment fund companies, venture capital groups and public companies.

Peter chaired the Financial Intermediary Regulatory Summit (April 2001) at which he and top regulators from the Ontario Securities Commission, The Investment Dealers Association of Canada, The Mutual Fund Dealers Association of Canada, the Financial Services Commission of Ontario and the Canadian Investor Protection Fund addressed the sweeping changes taking place in the regulation of Ontario’s capital markets.

In conjunction with that initiative, Peter was instrumental in establishing the Cassels Brock Registration and Compliance Group. Cassels Brock & Blackwell LLP has access to a unique blend of regulatory expertise and industry experience designed to offer the most comprehensive service available.
