ASIC released correspondence relating to a superannuation investment working group established to review Regulatory Guide 97 (RG97) and portfolio holdings disclosure requirements. The disclosed emails from September and November 2025 show ASIC and Treasury consulting with institutional investors about proposed regulatory changes. BlackRock declined an invitation to participate in the working group, stating while it appreciated ASIC's engagement on reducing regulatory barriers, it did not consider itself best positioned to provide practical insight on stamp duty and portfolio holdings matters, and preferred to focus on areas where it could contribute meaningfully. The correspondence indicates ASIC was actively engaging with major institutional investors during the review process, with participating officials including senior ASIC and Treasury representatives coordinating stakeholder feedback on the planned regulatory reforms.
