11 November 2021 - Whistleblower policies and the compliance gap

ASIC’s Commissioner Sean Hughes speaks at the 3rd Australian National Whistleblowing Symposium.

“Investigating misconduct revealed by whistleblowers is just one touchpoint ASIC has with the whistleblower protection regime. We do more than just:

  1. investigate misconduct and
  2. enforce breaches of the protections.

We also promote and foster compliance with the whistleblower protection regime.”

He outlines:

  1. the Corporations Act reforms
  2. the scope of ASIC’s review and our findings
  3. what we are asking Australian CEOs to do.
