Parliamentary Joint Committee on Corporations and Financial Services Report on ASIC

The Parliamentary Joint Committee on Corporations and Financial Services has tabled its March 2007 report on its statutory oversight of ASIC.

The report deals with a number of issues raised with ASIC including:

  • Simpler regulatory system
  • ASIC report on superannuation fees and costs
  • Financial planners
  • Westpoint
  • Educating investors
  • Vizard matter
  • Cole commission report
  • Hedging executive share options
  • Listed property trusts
  • Private equity

The sole recommendation is "that ASIC continues to seek an amendment to the disclosure requirements in the Corporations Act to increase the $50,000 threshold applying to promissory notes."
