ASIC is not asking whether you use AI. It is asking how you govern it. Can you answer all three?
A live, tiered register of every computer program making or influencing decisions about your clients. If it doesn't exist, neither does your first line of defence.
"Our system assessed your suitability" is not compliant. The law requires you to explain the input, the logic, and the outcome — for every significant automated decision.
ASIC now treats "set and forget" AI as a potential breach of s912A. Your staff must be active supervisors — not passive approvers — of every high-stakes automated recommendation.
