APRA Publishes Disclosure Standard

December 16, 2022 The Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) has released its final Prudential Standard APS 330 Public Disclosure for locally incorporated authorised deposit-taking institutions (ADIs). The new standard follows a public consultation, and will be effective from 1 January 2023. Although the new standard ensures APRA-mandated Pillar III disclosures are in line with international standards set by the Basel Committee, these disclosures would be more useful and more effective as a policy tool if they were published in structured format (e.g: in Inline XBRL) – something we hope to see progress on in the coming years. Also Down Under, this week the Australian Treasury published a consultation paper on climate-related financial disclosures for the Australian market. Readers should take note, in particular, of “Question 18: Should digital reporting be mandated for sustainability risk reporting?” To find out more details please visit : https://xbrl.org/ |
