Australia’s evolving capital markets: A discussion paper on the dynamics between public and private markets
Private capital is becoming a growing focus of regulators in Australia and internationally, given the ever-increasing flow of capital to the sector in recent years.
In its recently released discussion paper, Australia’s evolving capital markets: A discussion paper on the dynamics between public and private markets (Discussion Paper), ASIC provides a reminder of its heightened scrutiny of private markets and its review of investigatory and enforcement powers.
This Discussion Paper outlines the regulatory tools ASIC may use to investigate and enforce its concerns and the steps that private capital funds, managers and superannuation funds might consider to mitigate the risk of enforcement action.
See the Discussion Paper.
ASIC convenes Simplification Consultative Group; calls for greater science and technology expertise on boards
In a keynote speech at the Australian Institute of Company Directors (AICD) Australian Governance Summit on 12 March 2025, ASIC Chair Joe Longo announced that ASIC has convened the Simplification Consultative Group, which is charged with bringing fresh thinking and practical ideas to:
Simplify and consolidate ASIC's work, including regulatory guidance and legislative instruments.
Identify the highest priority, most useful potential law reforms to address complexity in the regulatory framework.
Mr Longo also called for companies to change their thinking about board composition and to broaden the skill sets and the perspectives of company boards, both by strategic hiring and by upskilling current board members in areas such as science and technology. He also highlighted the importance of having professional, competent and curious management the board can rely on.
See Mr Longo's speech: The times they are a-changin'– but directors' duties aren't .
ASIC sues AustralianSuper alleging significant death benefit claims failures
ASIC is suing AustralianSuper, the trustee of Australia’s largest superannuation fund, over delays in processing nearly 7,000 death benefit claims, according to proceedings filed in the Federal Court. ASIC's action is based on claims that AustralianSuper did not adequately process and pay out death benefits in a timely and efficient manner, potentially causing financial and emotional distress to the affected parties.
ASIC alleges that AustralianSuper failed to meet its obligations under the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 and the Corporations Act 2001 (Corporations Act). The failures relate to the processing and payment of death benefits, which are critical for the financial security of beneficiaries.
The alleged failures have affected numerous beneficiaries entitled to receive death benefits. ASIC's investigation revealed systemic issues in AustralianSuper's processes, leading to delays and potential financial hardship for the beneficiaries.
AustralianSuper has acknowledged the legal action and stated its commitment to addressing the issues raised by ASIC. The fund indicated that it will cooperate with the investigation and take necessary steps to improve its processes.
This legal action underscores ASIC's commitment to enforcing compliance within the superannuation industry and ensuring that funds meet their obligations to members and beneficiaries. The regulator is seeking penalties and corrective actions to ensure compliance and protect the interests of superannuation members and their beneficiaries. The outcome of this case could have significant implications for the industry, highlighting the need for robust processes and timely handling of death benefit claims.
See ASIC’s media release.
ASIC updates Markets Disciplinary Panel regulatory guidance
On 20 March 2025, ASIC released minor updates to Regulatory Guide 216 Markets Disciplinary Panel (RG 216) to reflect recent Markets Disciplinary Panel (MDP) decisions on the application of the new penalty regime imposed by the Treasury Laws Amendment (Strengthening Corporate and Financial Sector Penalties) Act 2019 (Cth), and current MDP processes. The MDP is a peer review panel that decides whether infringement notices should be given for alleged contraventions of the market integrity rules by market participants.
The new penalty regime significantly increased the maximum penalties for conduct occurring entirely on or after 13 March 2019. Recent MDP decisions have stated that a penalty should:
Be proportionate to the conduct of the market participant, balancing between deterrence and oppressive severity.
Promote market integrity by acting as a deterrent to any future misconduct by the participant and as a general deterrent to industry.
Be just and appropriate, considering the totality of the conduct and whether there are factually related contraventions.
ASIC notes that the updates to RG 216 also reflect current MDP processes, including that MDP hearings can now be conducted virtually. This version of RG 216 replaces guidance issued in January 2021.
For more information, see ASIC: Newsroom: ASIC updates Markets Disciplinary Panel regulatory guidance (20 March 2025).
ASIC Chair Joe Longo spoke with AICD Managing Director and CEO Mark Rigotti at the recent Australian Governance Summit
At the AICD Australian Governance Summit in Sydney on 12 March 2025, ASIC Chair Joe Longo delivered a keynote address, followed by a Q&A session. Key themes discussed included:
Regulatory complexity and Not-For-Profits (NFPs): Mr Longo acknowledged the complexities in the regulatory landscape, emphasising that the problem is a collective societal issue, with various stakeholders contributing. He highlighted ASIC's role in improving the administration of the Corporations Act and discussed the challenges in achieving law reform, which would require bipartisan effort.
AI in regulation: When asked about using AI for simplifying the Corporations Act, Mr Longo agreed that AI could be revolutionary but emphasised the need for practical steps first. He stressed that if ASIC does not adopt digital transformation, it risks becoming irrelevant and that actionable ideas are crucial.
Engagement with other agencies: Mr Longo confirmed that ASIC is working with Treasury and other bodies to develop actionable proposals from various ideas and complaints. He praised the voluntary participation of individuals in the simplification group and stressed the importance of turning ideas into actionable reforms.
Principles-based vs. prescriptive regulation: Mr Longo expressed a preference for principles-based regulation, particularly in areas like director duties, which he believes are better understood by the public. However, he acknowledged there is a need for more guidance in some areas, highlighting the tension between wanting principles and the demand for more detailed rules.
Distractions for directors: Mr Longo advised directors to focus on foundational principles and avoid distractions. He highlighted the challenges posed by technology and AI, which present ongoing regulatory challenges and emphasised the importance of curiosity and continuous learning in adapting to these changes.
Personal behaviour and director responsibilities: Regarding governance issues involving personal behaviour, Mr Longo stated that poor personal behaviour may not necessarily breach the Corporations Act but can still undermine a board's functionality. He emphasised that boards should take the lead in addressing such issues internally, with regulators stepping in only when necessary.
Private vs. public markets: Mr Longo discussed the shift from public to private markets and the regulatory challenges involved. He noted that while there is concern about de-equitisation in public markets, regulation is not necessarily the main cause. He also raised questions about the regulation of private markets and the role of superannuation in funding.
The conversation highlighted the need for a balanced approach to regulation and the importance of directors maintaining focus on their core responsibilities, while adapting to emerging challenges like digital transformation and evolving market dynamics.

ASIC key actions and proceedings
ASIC warns that payday lenders may be breaching consumer protection laws: An ASIC review reveals that some lenders providing small amount credit contracts may be attempting to move vulnerable consumers into contracts with fewer protections. See ASIC media release.
ASIC sues FIIG Securities for systemic and prolonged cybersecurity failures: FIIG Securities Limited (FIIG) allegedly failed to have adequate cybersecurity measures for more than four years, according to documents filed by ASIC in the Federal Court. This enabled the theft of approximately 385GB of confidential data, with some 18,000 clients notified that their personal information may have been compromised. See ASIC media release.
Victorian man charged over alleged market manipulation: Behzad Eghrari, of Vermont South, Victoria, has been charged with three offences of creating a false or misleading appearance of active trading following an ASIC investigation. ASIC alleges that between 3 August 2022 and 23 January 2024, Mr Eghrari executed 679 trades between share trading accounts he controlled, with no change in beneficial ownership, thereby creating a false or misleading appearance of active trading in financial products. See ASIC media release.
Active Super ordered to pay $10.5 million penalty in ASIC’s third greenwashing court action: On 18 March 2025, the Federal Court imposed a penalty of $10.5 million against Active Super for greenwashing misconduct.

APRA
APRA: proposed governance reforms for financial institutions
APRA has released a Governance Review - Discussion Paper outlining eight proposals to strengthen its prudential governance framework for banks, insurers and superannuation trustees. This marks the first major update to these standards in over a decade. The proposals aim to establish clear benchmarks for regulated entities and address current areas of poor governance practices.
The proposed changes include:
Enhanced requirements for board composition and skills.
Elevated standards for fitness and propriety of responsible persons.
Extended conflict of interest management requirements across banking and insurance sectors.
Strengthened board independence measures.
A lifetime default tenure limit of 10 years for non-executive directors at APRA-regulated entities.
Written submissions in response to these proposals are due by 6 June 2025. APRA states that it will also host industry and other stakeholder roundtables in April and May 2025 to gather feedback and insights.
Among the proposals is the more controversial proposition that non-executive directors of APRA-regulated entities have a term limit of 10 years, with an option for APRA to approval a two-year extension in exceptional circumstances. APRA acknowledges in the Discussion Paper that this would put Australia out of line with other jurisdictions which do not impose a term limit. Addressing the AFR Banking Summit on 18 March 2025, APRA Chair John Lonsdale stated that after consulting with industry, corporate governance experts and peer regulators, APRA concluded that 10 years, with the option for a two-year extension, struck the appropriate balance between continuity and renewal.
APRA is inviting written submissions in response to this Discussion Paper. Submissions close on 6 June 2025.
For more information, see APRA media release: APRA proposes changes to strengthen and streamline governance and fit and proper requirements (6 March 2025).

FATF updates on global ML/TF/PF risk – February 2025
The Financial Action Task Force (FATF), the global group responsible for setting international anti-money laundering, counter-terrorism financing and counter-proliferation financing (AML/CTF/CPF) standards, has published two recent updates on international money laundering, terrorism financing and proliferation financing (ML/TF/PF) risk.
The reports provide an update on jurisdictions that may pose a risk to the international financial system:
High-Risk Jurisdictions subject to a Call for Action – February 2025: notes that the 21 February 2020 call for action in relation to the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, Iran and Myanmar remains in effect.
Jurisdictions under Increased Monitoring – February 2025: lists jurisdictions with strategic deficiencies in their AML/CTF/CPF regimes and are actively working with the FATF to address these issues (being so-called ‘grey’ list countries).
Reporting entities should be aware of countries posing a higher risk of ML/TF/PF and use this information to guide ML/TF/PF risk assessments, compliance programs and decisions about submitting suspicious matter reports to AUSTRAC.
For further information, see AUSTRAC’s guidance on high-risk countries, regions and groups. Also see AUSTRAC’s media release.

NASC publishes latest Targeting Scams Report showing a 25.9% decrease in scam losses
On 11 March 2025, the National Anti-Scam Centre (NASC) published its second Targeting Scams Report (the Report) covering data collected in 2024 from Scamwatch, ReportCyber, the Australian Financial Crimes Exchange, IDCARE and ASIC. The data revealed that scam losses in Australia for 2024 were $2.03 billion. While still unacceptably too high, this represents a 25.9% decrease of the total scam losses in 2023.
Welcoming the findings of the Report, the Minister for Financial Services stated that that the reduction in losses over 2024 demonstrates the efforts by government, industry, law enforcement, consumers and community organisations. Acknowledging that more remains to be done, the Minister announced new pathways for victims to seek compensation where wrongdoing has occurred. Currently, scam victims can only raise a dispute with the Australian Financial Complaints Authority (AFCA) against the bank which sent the consumer’s funds (the sending bank). A new ministerial direction by the Assistant Treasurer will enable AFCA to investigate the receiving bank’s actions on behalf of a scam victim. This will empower AFCA to investigate the actions of every bank in the scam chain.
AFCA will work with industry and consumer groups over coming months to finalise the implementation of this ministerial direction.
See the Report. See the Minister’s press release.
Legislation and proposed legislation
Delivering on a streamlined and strengthened foreign investment framework
On 14 March 2025, the government published updated Guidance Notes to implement key foreign investment improvements and provide greater clarity to investors, alongside the government's ongoing reforms to streamline and strengthen the foreign investment framework.
The reforms aim to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of the foreign investment framework in Australia.
The updated Guidance Notes include:
Treasury states that the updated Guidance Notes:
Provide information about foreign investment in new and established Build to Rent developments, including lower application fees for these types of investments to support increased housing supply.
Set out eligibility criteria for partial refunds of application fees for unsuccessful proposals in competitive bid processes. More certainty on refunds will encourage more foreign investors to participate in these processes.
Clarify tax arrangements that will attract greater scrutiny in the foreign investment assessment process to ensure foreign investors pay their fair share of tax.
Key changes include the simplification of the application process for foreign investors, strengthened compliance and enforcement measures to ensure adherence to Australian laws and introduction of new measures to protect national security and critical infrastructure.
The aim is to improve clarity and certainty for foreign investors, enhance the government’s ability to manage risks associated with foreign investments and support for economic growth and job creation by attracting quality foreign investments.
This release underscores the government's commitment to maintaining a robust and transparent foreign investment regime that balances economic benefits with national security considerations.
The updated guidance is available at Treasury: Foreign Investment in Australia: Updates to guidance material (14 March 2025). Also see the Treasurer’s media release.
Developing an innovative Australian digital asset industry
The government is working to deliver effective settings for digital assets and payment stablecoins. This is expected to:
increase transparency
protect consumers
help Australia adopt and benefit from new technology
keep Australia competitive globally.
The government will work with ASIC and industry to smooth the transition to the new settings.
The reforms leverage the Australian financial services framework, providing consistent oversight and strong safeguards for consumers.
The government plans to consult on the draft legislation in 2025.
See the government’s Statement on Developing an Innovative Australian Digital Asset Industry.
Corporate cases
Whistleblower claims for compensation and other remedies following detrimental conduct dismissed (FCA)
In Reiche v Neometals Ltd (No 2) [2025] FCA 125, Justice Feutrill of the Federal Court of Australia dismissed claims by a former employee, Mr Reiche, that his former employer, Neometals Ltd (Neometals), engaged in detrimental conduct, believing or suspecting there was an actual or potential whistleblower disclosure by Mr Reiche under Part 9.4AAA of the Corporations Act. Mr Reiche broadly alleged that:
During his employment, he made disclosures to Neometals that qualified for protection under Part 9.4AAA of the Corporations Act.
Neometals engaged in detrimental conduct, including terminating Mr Reiche’s employment with immediate effect.
Justice Feutrill ultimately dismissed Mr Reiche's claim, finding that Neometals discharged its responsibility of proving that Mr Reiche’s claim under section 1317AD(1) of the Corporations Act was not made out based on direct testimony from relevant individuals who decided on, or were involved in, the detrimental conduct.
However, the judgment provides a helpful illustration of the elements of the cause of action under section 1317AD of the Corporations Act, confirming that, contrary to other protective whistleblowing provisions (but like victimisation under section 1317AC of the Corporations Act), it is not an element of the cause of action that a qualifying disclosure has been made. Rather, it is enough that the alleged victimiser believed or suspected the person made, may have made, proposed to make or could make a qualifying disclosure.
ASIC greenwashing case against LGSS (Active Super) - $10.5 million penalty
Summary
The Federal Court (O’Callaghan J) delivered judgment in relation to relief on 18 March 2025, in ASIC v LGSS (No 3) [2025] FCA 205.
As summarised in this client update:
This is the third ASIC greenwashing case, noting that Mercer (by consent) and Vanguard (contested) were ordered to pay penalties of $11.3 million and $12.9 million respectively last year.
At the contested penalty hearing against Active Super on 17 December 2024, ASIC proposed a penalty of $13.5 million, while Active Super submitted that a penalty of $2.456 million would be appropriate.
The Federal Court ordered LGSS to:
Pay a $10.5 million penalty in respect of its contraventions of ss 12DB(1)(a) (false or misleading representations) and 12DF(1) (certain misleading conduct in relation to financial services) of the Australian Securities and Investments Commission Act 2001 (ASIC Act).
Publish a written adverse publicity notice.
Pay costs.
LGSS is the trustee of Active Super. Active Super is the only superannuation fund for which LGSS acts, or has ever acted, as trustee.
Reasons for the $10.5 million penalty
The Federal Court found:
Seriousness of contraventions: LGSS’s contraventions were serious – and this was not disputed between the parties. “LGSS benefitted from its misleading conduct by misrepresenting the ‘ethical’ nature of a significant part of its investments, which on any view enhanced its ability to attract investors to the Active Super fund and enhanced its reputation as a provider of investment funds with ESG characteristics. As a result, investors lost the opportunity to invest in accordance with their investment values.”
Aggravating factors: “The contravening conduct continued over an extensive period of time (approximately two and a half years); the likely causes of it were never explained; it concerned substantial investments; it was likely to have led to investors losing confidence in ESG programs; and the failure by LGSS to have in place properly functioning systems and processes designed to ensure that its representations were not false or misleading was the responsibility of senior management. Further, when confronted with the allegations by ASIC, LGSS ran a host of contrived arguments in its defence at trial.”
Mitigating factors: “On the other side of the deterrence ledger, LGSS apologised (albeit belatedly); it has not previously been found to have engaged in similar contravening conduct; it has taken steps to improve its compliance systems; it attended two voluntary conferences with ASIC; and the need for specific deterrence is of less importance in this case compared with other cases because of the successful merger described above.”
No reduction was required based on the totality principle.
