Market integrity rules
ASIC is changing the way market integrity rules apply to market operators and participants.
We have phased out market-specific rule books – replacing them with a common set of market integrity rules for securities markets and a common set of market integrity rules for futures markets.

We also publish monthly Regulatory document update tables, which include updates to regulatory documents not notified in media releases.
Securities markets
From 7 May 2018, ASX, Chi-X, IR Plus, SSX and their participants must comply with a common set of market integrity rules for securities markets.
