Prepare for ASIC to focus on small end of town
Businesses need to plan for the fact that ASIC could come into their business. Explaining something away or saying “I haven’t done that sorry” no longer cuts it when you run a licensee. If they do come in, they are not going to worry about how you feel.

A fence at the top of the hill: changing how we think about “compliance”

While this is true to a certain extent, my view is that it excludes some pretty important considerations.
