Court Decisions
I-14.01 - Derivatives Act
Section 160
Disposition versions
160. Unless otherwise specified, any person who contravenes this Act is guilty of an offence and is liable to a minimum fine of $2,000 in the case of a natural person and $3,000 in the case of any other person, or of double the profit realized, whichever is greater. The maximum fine is $150,000 for a natural person and $200,000 for any other person, or four times the profit realized, whichever is greater.
In determining the amount of a fine, the court considers such factors as the benefits derived from the offence and the injury caused.
