We support a revised capital framework that strengthens the financial resilience of the industry, embeds unquestionably strong levels of capital and also provides for greater flexibility in periods of stress.
We recommend that APRA:
• replace the parallel run with targeted quantitative impact surveys (QIS)
• delay the implementation of the standardised approach for foundation and advanced internal ratings based (FIRB and AIRB) authorised deposit-taking institutions (ADIs)
• reduce the regulatory reporting burden on ADIs for March 2023, and
• delay the implementation of new Pillar 3 changes to 2024.
