Changes to ASX Listing Rules

The rules are changing!

A year to the day since the ASX released its Public Consultation paper "Simplifying, clarifying and enhancing the integrity and efficiency of the ASX listing rules", it has received regulatory approval for changes to ASX Listing Rules, Appendices and Guidance Notes, effective 1 Dec 19.

There are many changes some of these are:

• Good fame and character extended to non-director CEOs and CFO
• Voting for employee incentive schemes
• ASX announcements and smart forms
• Distribution schedule in annual report
• Security issues, restrictions and escrow
• Notice of meeting and voting exclusions
• Waivers
• Enhanced monitoring and enforcement
• Admission requirements
• New guidance notes
