Changes to regulatory work and priorities in response to COVID-19 (pulldowns)
ASIC has previously stated it would temporarily change its regulatory work and priorities to allow it and regulated entities to focus on the impact of COVID-19. This will include the deferral of some activities and redeployment of staff to address issues of immediate concern, including maintaining the integrity of markets and protecting vulnerable consumers.
ASIC can now provide details on many of the activities that will be affected (see below). We will provide further advice on changes to ASIC work implementing the recommendations of the Financial Services Royal Commission in light of changes to the Parliamentary timetable and any future Government decisions on those measures.
