Commonwealth legislation
This Act has been repealed and is no longer in force. It is retained for historical reference.
This instrument requires registrable superannuation entity (RSE) licensees to submit quarterly electronic returns (Form SRF 532.0) to APRA detailing all “large” investment exposures (those ≥1% of an RSE’s assets), covering direct holdings, indirect holdings and look‑through disclosure for associated investment vehicles. APRA says the data are for prudential supervision and to check compliance with SPS 530. The reporting duty falls on RSE licensees, who must maintain systems, auditor review and authorised electronic submission, creating an ongoing compliance and classification burden.
