APRA makes minor amendments to its large exposure framework for ADIs
The Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) has introduced minor changes to its large exposure framework for authorised deposit-taking institutions (ADIs).
Along with the amendments to Prudential Standard APS 221 Large Exposures (APS 221) and Reporting Standard ARS 221.0 (ARS 221.0), APRA is releasing a second set of frequently asked questions (FAQs) aimed at helping ADIs implement this framework.
The revised APS 221 and ARS 221.0 can be found at: Prudential and Reporting Standards for Authorised deposit-taking institutions.
The FAQs, the letter to industry and marked up versions of APS 221 and ARS 221.0 can also be found on the APRA website.
