APRA. ASIC. AUSTRAC. Three regulators, one compliance view.
We've mapped every obligation across all three.

CPS 230, CPS 234, AML/CTF Act, ASIC IDR, Consumer Law — Australian financial services firms answer to three regulators with overlapping but distinct requirements. AuditDSS maps every obligation across all three.

Scored obligations

Three regulators, three enforcement teams, one compliance budget

Australian financial services firms live under the most heavily overlapping regulatory environment in any industry. APRA sets prudential standards — CPS 230 for operational resilience, CPS 234 for information security. ASIC enforces market conduct, consumer protection, and internal dispute resolution. AUSTRAC mandates AML/CTF programs with penalties demonstrated by CBA's $1.3 billion fine. Each regulator runs independent examinations, expects distinct evidence, and enforces separately.

But the underlying controls overlap significantly — a single incident response capability satisfies CPS 230 business continuity, CPS 234 security incident management, and AUSTRAC's suspicious matter reporting simultaneously. AuditDSS maps every overlap.

That's what AuditDSS does.

Tier 3 Conduct & Consumer — What ASIC Requires

From regulation to compliance in four steps

1

Identify

Determine which APRA, ASIC, and AUSTRAC obligations apply based on your licence type, entity size, and regulated activities.

2

Assess

Score compliance across all three regulators simultaneously. See where a single control gap creates exposure with multiple regulators.

3

Remediate

Generate compliant policies, procedures, and board reporting documentation. Every clause traced to specific prudential standard, AML/CTF rule, or ASIC requirement.

4

Evidence

Map existing controls, incident logs, and compliance records to obligations across all three regulators. One evidence vault, three regulators satisfied.

Your existing compliance data is evidence — we connect the dots

Risk & Resilience

Business continuity plans, third-party risk assessments, service provider registers, and incident response documentation. Maps to CPS 230 operational resilience obligations and AUSTRAC business continuity requirements simultaneously.

Information Security

Security policies, vulnerability assessments, penetration test results, and incident logs. Direct evidence for CPS 234 information security requirements and AUSTRAC cybersecurity obligations.

AML/CTF Programs

Transaction monitoring alerts, suspicious matter reports, CDD records, and AML program documentation. Maps to AUSTRAC compliance rules and ASIC conduct obligations.

Consumer & Complaints

IDR records, complaint handling data, product governance documentation, and consumer outcomes analysis. Evidence for ASIC IDR requirements and ACL consumer protection obligations.

You don't need separate GRC systems for APRA, ASIC, and AUSTRAC. You need one platform that maps your existing controls to obligations across all three regulators — showing where one piece of evidence satisfies multiple requirements. That's what AuditDSS does.
