Regulatory Initiatives Grid May 2026

Treasury has released the Regulatory Initiatives Grid – Edition 3, which lists announced and publicised regulatory reform priorities and initiatives that will materially affect the financial sector over the next 2 years, as reported by ASIC, APRA, AUSTRAC, ATO, RBA, ACCC, AFSA, and the Department of Home Affairs.

The RIG covers 8 financial sectors (banking/credit, investment management, financial advice, financial markets, insurance, payment services/digital assets, superannuation, and other) and organises initiatives into 4 lifecycle categories: policy development, development of legislation, regulations and instruments, ongoing program implementation, and review and evaluation.

Listed regulatory changes are indicative only and remain subject to change including, for example, to reflect changes in priorities and/or the market environment.
