End-To-End Accountability: Remarks To Association Of Superannuation Funds Of Australia Conference 2024 - Remarks By ASIC Commissioner Simone Constant At Association Of Superannuation Funds Of Australia Conference 2024 In Sydney On 20 November 2024

Date 20/11/2024

Key points

• Driving better retirement outcomes and member services is a strategic priority for ASIC. Ensuring accountability of superannuation trustees will be a significant focus for us over the next year.
• We have written to the CEOs of every APRA-regulated superannuation trustee, urging industry leaders to act now to improve their oversight of death benefits. We are concerned the metrics being used to track death claims handling and processing are too sparse to drive accountability.
• We have also reminded senior executives that they will become accountable persons under the Financial Accountability Regime from next March, which will be an important step in helping us ensure there is top-down accountability in superannuation funds.
