ABSF Update

1 July 2019

The AOFM will be conducting roundtable discussions in Sydney on 23 July and in Melbourne on 25 July as an opportunity for industry participants to receive an update and ask questions about the Australian Business Securitisation Fund (ABSF). More information on the agenda and how to register is provided below.

ABSF Roundtables – Sydney and Melbourne

The AOFM will provide an update on progress toward establishing the ABSF and will outline next steps including the likely submission and assessment process. The role of the ABSF Investment Principles in filtering proposals will also be explained, and there will be a discussion of the information that SME lenders are likely to be asked to provide as part of their submissions.

A Q&A session will be included.

The Australian Securitisation Forum (ASF) is convening the roundtables. To register for the events, please visit the ASF website.

Guiding Principles for ABSF investment
