The Compliance Gap

Why financial services compliance keeps you up at night

AFS licensees juggle overlapping regulators, shifting obligations, and board scrutiny — with tooling that was never built for the job.

AFS licence conditions not mapped to operational obligations

Licence conditions sit in legal documents while day-to-day operations run independently. Gaps between what your licence requires and what your team actually does remain invisible until an ASIC review surfaces them.

Breach register not maintained — s912D self-reporting missed

Without a centralised breach register, reportable situations under s912D are identified late or not at all. Self-reporting obligations carry strict timeframes, and missed deadlines compound regulatory risk.

AUSTRAC AML/CTF annual compliance report deadlines missed

The annual compliance report to AUSTRAC requires evidence of programme effectiveness across the year. Assembling that evidence manually from scattered systems creates last-minute scrambles and incomplete submissions.

Board unable to demonstrate oversight of compliance programme

Directors need to evidence active oversight of the compliance programme. Without structured board reporting, there is no documented trail showing the board received, questioned, and acted on compliance information.

APRA CPS 230 operational risk framework not operationalised

CPS 230 requires identification of critical operations, tolerance settings, and business continuity testing. Many organisations have the policy but lack the operational systems to track and evidence compliance.

Regulatory change management done manually with no tracking

When ASIC, APRA, or AUSTRAC issue new guidance or legislative instruments, changes are tracked via email threads and ad-hoc spreadsheets. There is no systematic way to assess impact, assign owners, or verify implementation.

Framework Coverage

Obligation coverage across every financial services regulator
