Meaning, mutual fund in the country will only need to seek the approval of the Securities and Exchange Commission and present the permit to the SECs of the other country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter signing the statement of understanding, they (the member economies) will still have to look at the rules the participating economies will have to follow,\u201d shared Cabiles.<\/p>\n<p>Cabiles noted that they are expecting to finalize the rules by next year. The memorandum of understanding (MOU) will need to be signed before the year ends.<\/p>\n<p>However, the country\u2019s participation in the MOU will still depend on the accreditation of SEC from an international association. The SEC is required to be a signatory to the International Organization of Securities Commission\u2019s Appendix X of the multilateral memorandum of understanding.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from the Philippines, other countries that have expressed intent to join this include Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea, and Japan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MANILA \u2013 The Department of Finance (DOF) on Thursday said country is scheduled to sign a regional agreement that will &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":44,"featured_media":10520,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-60727","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-business","mauthors-lei-fontamillas","mauthors-philippine-canadian-inquirer"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60727","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/44"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=60727"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60727\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10520"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=60727"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=60727"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=60727"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
