Are companies required to submit a Corporate Governance Certification Form annually?
No. After the initial certification, an updated certification form is required only if a change in the company’s status results in the prior certification no longer being accurate. For example, if a company indicated on its certification that it was not subject to a requirement because it was a controlled company, that company must submit a new form if it ceases to be a controlled company. Similarly, a foreign private issuer that relied on an exemption in its certification would have to file a new certification if the company ceased to be a foreign private issuer.
