On 5 August 2025, ASIC released Simple Consultation: Proposed remake of relief instrument for managed investment product consideration inviting industry feedback on proposed revisions to ASIC Corporations (Managed Investment Product Consideration) Instrument 2015/847 which sunsets on 1 October 2025.

- reducing the prescriptiveness of documentation provisions, and
- making general ASIC drafting style changes.
Submissions on ASIC’s proposed changes close at 5pm on 29 August 2025.
