What we do

ASIC is Australia's integrated corporate, markets, financial services and consumer credit regulator.

ASIC is an independent Australian Government body. We are set up under and administer the Australian Securities and Investments Commission Act 2001 (ASIC Act), and we carry out most of our work under the Corporations Act.

Industry funding payment plans

Payment plans for levies and penalties are available in cases of financial hardship. A payment plan allows you to pay your levy by instalments. Late payment penalties will be suspended while the payment plan is in place and complied with.

We encourage you to contact ASIC as soon as possible before the levy notice due date to determine whether you are eligible for a payment plan.

To apply for an industry funding payment plan, log in to your ASIC Regulatory Portal account to complete the payment plan transaction.

Ensure you include the following information:

  • Entity details
  • Industry funding levy notice number
  • Amount requested for payment plan
  • Frequency of payment (weekly, fortnightly, monthly)
  • Instalment amount
  • Reason why you require a payment plan
  • Supporting documentation to substantiate claims of financial hardship.
