E-file – Disclosure management to investors

Home page

Introduction

The “Disclosure management to investors” module is a new application available to you through e-File, which will eventually replace the existing “Dissemination set up” module that you are already familiar with.

This short guide aims at presenting you with the basic functions of the module -even though, as you will soon realize, it is designed with simplicity and intuitiveness in mind.

We hope you enjoy the new application as much as we do. For any feedback or inquiries, please do not hesitate to contact us at:
