ASIC融资用于打击金融服务不当行为

ASIC funding to combat financial services misconduct

The Government has announced a further $70.1m to bolster ASIC's capabilities to combat misconduct in the financial services industry. 

It said the extra funding will enable ASIC to undertake new regulatory activities and investigations as it looks to refocus on proactive enforcement and onsite supervision. 

The package of measures includes:


  • $26.2m for enforcement activities to pursue actions for serious misconduct against well-funded litigants, through the Enforcement Special Account;

  • $9.4m for audit and enforcement action in the superannuation sector to improve transparency and member outcomes;

  • $8m to embed dedicated ASIC staff within the big 4 banks and AMP to monitor governance and compliance actions;

  • $6.8m to establish a dedicated taskforce which will conduct a review into corporate governance to identify failings in large listed companies, including deploying staff to conduct on-site surveillance;

  • $6.6m to implement the whistleblower protection laws; 

  • $6m to promote the development of regulatory technology solutions.

The remaining funds will be directed towards improving consumer access to the Financial Advisers Register; enhancing ASIC's enforcement work on the unfair contract term protections for small businesses; and ensuring compliance by licensees and financial advisers with the FoFA laws.
