Consultation paper: Proposed exemption for restricted schemes from custodian assurance requirements

First published 8 August 2018 

We are considering if we should grant a class exemption for custodians of restricted MIS schemes so they will no longer have obtain an assurance engagement with a qualified auditor on the design and operational effectiveness of the custodian’s processes, procedures and controls. 

It is proposed that it will be a condition of the exemption that the scheme’s administration manager obtain an assurance engagement.

We seek your feedback on our proposals.
