REP 37 ASIC verification visit program: Key findings

Released September 2004.

Between December 2002 and July 2004, ASIC conducted verification visits on 353 Australian financial services (AFS) licensees. The licensees were randomly selected to cover a wide range of sectors within the financial services industry.

The purpose of ASIC’s program of verification visits was to:

  • check that certain statements made in a licensee’s AFS licence application (primarily Part B of the application) were true; and
  • ensure that the licensee’s procedures covering: compliance; supervision of representatives and authorised representatives; financial resources; risk management; internal dispute resolution; and compensation were in place and operating in practice.
