An address by Jillian Segal, Deputy Chair, ASIC, to the annual conference of the Insurance Council of Australia, 9 August 2001.
Introduction
Thank you for inviting me to speak at the Annual ICA Conference and for the opportunity to give you an update on some of the issues that are currently on ASIC's agenda, including several general insurance issues. It should become clear to you that ASIC's agenda is both very full and very diverse, and dealing with the wide range of issues before us is certainly a challenge. In such an environment, it is important we maintain an open dialogue with industry about what ASIC is doing and why, so I am pleased to be able to give you an overview of some of our activities and priorities today.
