I have published an Accountable Persons and Responsible Managers Manual which is a 160 page guide on the obligations of BEAR accountable persons and responsible managers for AFSL and credit licensees. It helps you identify the requirements of the Corporations Act, the National Credit Act and other financial services regulations. It is up to date to 1 January 2020.

It shows how the obligation to act efficiently, honestly and fairly links to the obligation to report breaches to ASIC and APRA, ASIC’s new Product Intervention powers and companies’ design and distribution obligations, responsible lending, increased corporate misconduct penalties, the Banking Executive Accountability Regime and the whistleblower laws.

You can either buy it separately or receive it is as part of my Responsible Managers Compliance course.
