CP 208 ASX Managed Funds Service: Relief from the application form requirement

Released 30 May 2013. Comments closed 11 July 2013.

This consultation paper is for investors, responsible entities, ASX market participants, ASX settlement participants, dealers, platform operators and potential providers of similar facilities to the proposed ASX Managed Funds Service (AMFS).

The AMFS is a facility through which offers to acquire and dispose of financial products can made to the issuers of financial products (products).

This paper seeks feedback on our proposal to grant relief to ASX Limited from the requirement in s1016A of the Corporations Act 2001 (Corporations Act) that a retail investor must apply for financial products using an application form that was included in or accompanied the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS). This relief would apply to responsible entities of registered schemes for applications made through the AMFS.
