Risk Frameworks Australia sets industry standards for risk frameworks, policies and terminology, so that business and risk professionals across Australian financial services all speak the same language.
Why an industry standard?
Organisations operating under the same regulators and the same obligations don’t need their own specialised versions of the same framework.
Everything else is how we speak, document and report it, and that should be standard.
Same regulators, same standard
Banks, lenders, super funds, insurers and investment firms answer to the same regulators and obligations. One industry standard meets them once, for everyone.
Stop paying to reinvent
Organisations no longer need to invest in building and maintaining their own specialised frameworks, policies and terminology for the same regulated activities.
Expertise that travels
Experts and employees can move across organisations and industries knowing what the standard is, and boards and regulators read reports they already understand.
Aligned to your industry
Our frameworks align to the five sectors of Australian financial services.
Banking
Banks, authorised deposit-taking institutions and lenders.
Finance
Credit providers, payments and financial services firms.
Superannuation
Super funds and trustees.
Insurance
General, life and health insurers.
Investment
Fund managers, platforms and investment firms.
