Draft of the Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations 5th Edition

On 8 May 2024, AFIA made a submission to the Australian Securities Exchange Ltd (‘ASX’) on the consultation draft of the 5th Edition of their Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations.

 This guidance is non-binding and only applies to publicly listed companies on the ASX.

 AFIA made a series of recommendations related to the following topics:

  • the scope of the skills matrix requirements
  • clarification of the definitions of ‘stakeholders’ and ‘material issues’
  • proposed changes to the auditing requirements between the 4th and 5th editions
  • limitations on remuneration and other associated benefits

We will continue to work with the ASX on refining these principles to meet high standards.
