ASIC's letter to the Treasurer dated 12 August 2025 outlines five additional measures to reduce compliance burdens and enhance productivity across the financial services industry. Key actions include: establishing a working group to review disclosure requirements for stamp duty in superannuation investment decisions and class order relief for private credit arrangements; reducing data collection and reporting obligations, including participation in the Council of Financial Regulators' review of small and medium-sized banks; and other regulatory adjustments. The letter, from ASIC Chair Joseph Longo, supplements ASIC's earlier 1 August response to the Treasurer's June request for specific, measurable compliance cost reduction actions across government regulators.
