Equip participants with the knowledge to comply with breach reporting guidelines and regulations.

AFS licensees and Australian credit licensees have an obligation to report certain breaches of the law under the Corporations Act 2001 and the National Consumer Credit Protection Act 2009.

The Australian Securities & Investments Commission (ASIC) issued Regulatory Guide 78 (RG 78): Breach Reporting by AFS licensees and credit licensees, which mandates that licensees must self-report specific breaches to ASIC. Failing to comply with these reporting obligations can lead to severe consequences, including penalties, fines, other sanctions, suspension or revocation of the AFS license, and a significant loss of trust from regulators, customers, and third parties.
