CS 17 Proposed updates to the ASIC Derivative Trade Repository Rules 2023

Released 10 March 2025. Comments close 8 April 2025.

We propose to amend the ASIC Derivative Trade Repository Rules 2023 (2023 DTR Rules) to:

re-reference the changed location of definitions in the Corporations Act 2001 (Act) which have been moved by the Treasury Laws Amendment (2023 Law Improvement Package No. 1) Act 2023, and
make other minor administrative updates.

In particular, we propose to:

update two definitions under Rule 1.2.3 to reflect the changed location of definitions under the Act
remove six definitions under Rule 1.2.3 that duplicate definitions provided under the Act and a related note under Rule 1.2.2, and
correct an erroneous reference under Rule 2.4.4.

We consider that these changes are minor and machinery.
