Please explain: ASIC is taking a harder line on prospectuses it regards as offering investors too little information
Article Abstract:
The Australian Securities & Investments Commission (ASIC) believes that too many firms are seeking support from investors without giving them sufficient information to make a proper decision. In 2000 to 2001, ASIC placed stop orders on 81 prospectuses. Some observers believe that ASIC is not consistent in applying its review criteria.

Apply now, says ASIC
Article Abstract:
According to the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, accountants are slow to file applications for financial planning licenses under the new Financial Services Reform (FSR) Act. Accounting is one of the professions that would come under ASIC's regulatory coverage but it is one that is singled out by the regulator for having adopted a negative approach to the changes.
