The Hayne Royal Commission
Hayne's final report: Insights from our risk and compliance specialists and legal experts
Following much speculation, Commissioner Kenneth Hayne’s final report in the Royal Commission into Misconduct in the Banking, Superannuation and Financial Services Industry was released to the public on Monday, 4 February 2019.
The report contains 76 recommendations arising out of the Commission’s observations, in four areas:
- the connection between conduct and reward;
- the asymmetry of power and information between financial services entities and their customers;
- the effect of conflicts between duty and interest; and
- holding entities to account.
