This discussion paper:

• describes the aim of our project on past performance (see Section 1);
• summarises ASIC’s research on relevant topics, such as consumer behaviour, the value of performance information and current marketing practices (see Sections 3-5).
• describes regulatory approaches to past performance and marketing in Australia and overseas jurisdictions (see Sections 6-7); and
• outlines ASIC’s conclusions and specific proposals (see Sections 8-9).

We are happy to consider any further issues and proposals you may wish to raise.
