Equity Trustees hit with additional licence conditions
Financial Standard
|January 27, 2026
The Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) has imposed additional licence conditions on Equity Trustees Superannuation Limited (ETSL) to address concerns relating to its investment governance frameworks and practices, including oversight of platform investment options made available to members.
This comes after APRA sent a letter to all platform trustees in October 2025 in the wake of the Shield and First Guardian fund collapses, calling for greater oversight and protection of member assets.
ETSL acts as trustee for 11 registrable superannuation entities (RSEs) and has approximately 649,000 member accounts and over $37 billion in funds under management.
The additional licence conditions follow APRA’s recent thematic review of the investment governance, strategic planning and member outcomes practices of superannuation trustees that offer platforms.
