What is the ASIC Regulatory Portal?

The ASIC Regulatory Portal will become your central access to our growing suite of regulatory services, which are being consolidated onto the portal over time.

I'm a market participant – what do I need to do?

All market participants should have registered on the ASIC Regulatory Portal as part of their annual industry funding obligations.

If you are a market participant with an existing ASIC Regulatory Portal account, transactions are available in your portal account under a transaction section titled 'Market intermediaries - notifications and other submissions'.

I'm a market infrastructure provider – what do I need to do?

All market infrastructure providers should have registered on the ASIC Regulatory Portal as part of their annual industry funding obligations.

If you are a market infrastructure provider with an existing ASIC Regulatory Portal account, transactions are available in your portal account under a transaction section titled 'Market infrastructure – notifications and other submissions'.

I’m not on the Regulatory Portal, how do I register?

Anyone required to use the portal to transact with ASIC will need to register their own user account. You can register for portal access at any time.

Go to the ASIC Regulatory Portal homepage and select the blue 'Register' button.

For more information on how to register, see our user guide.

Can I arrange for someone else to submit a form/transaction on my behalf via the Regulatory Portal?

Yes. You can invite trusted representatives to act on your behalf in the portal.

If you would like someone to act on your behalf in the portal, you first need to invite them to connect to your account.

When inviting someone to connect to your account you can define user access levels that control what others can do on your behalf. For example, you can authorise another user to launch and edit a transaction, but only you can submit. Please note that the authorised user will receive their own user name and password to log into the portal.

Only a user with Senior administrator or Administrator Access level for an entity can invite other users to connect to that entity.

For more information on how to invite someone to connect to your account, see the Administration section on the FAQ page.

I've invited someone to connect to my account in the Regulatory Portal, how do I ensure they don't see confidential information?

The invitation process involves setting an Access level to determine what someone can and can't see and do, on your behalf.

There are four Access levels – Senior administrator, Administrator, Approver and Editor.

• Senior administrator – can launch, edit and submit a transaction, invite other users to the entity and view other administrative details for an entity.
• Administrator – can launch, edit and submit a transaction and invite other users to the entity. Registered liquidators may invite senior staff or an assistant to this level of access.
• Approver – can launch, edit and submit a form or transaction, and view other administrative details for an entity. Registered liquidators may invite senior staff this level of access, so they can submit a transaction after the registered liquidator has approved the working papers etc.
• Editor – in general, can launch and edit a form and transaction, but they cannot submit it. We anticipate that many registered liquidators may invite analysts or accountant-level staff to this level of access. The analyst/accountant can then draft transactions but will not be able to submit them.

You can also restrict access to transactions in portal – refer to the below section for more information about this.

For more information on setting Access levels, see the Administration section on the FAQ page.

Can I restrict access to transactions in the Regulatory Portal?

Yes. Once you launch a form or transaction, the portal will direct you to a transaction settings page. The transaction settings page asks if you want to restrict access to the transaction. To restrict access, click Yes – restrict access. This will take you to a set restrictions page, which allows you to select users who can access the transaction.

Once you have set the restrictions for a transaction, you also have the option to add or remove users later.

More information on restricting access to transactions is on the FAQ page.

Where do I go if I need help using the Regulatory Portal?

The ASIC Regulatory Portal help page has resources to help you get up to speed with using the portal. These include step-by-step user guides, FAQs and videos to help you – from registering your account to connecting your registration and inviting trusted representatives to act on your behalf.
