New legislation: Design and distribution obligations (DDO)

Legislation has been introduced relating to the design and distribution of a wide range of financial products, including Exchange Traded Options (“ETOs”). The legislation aims to ensure that financial products are issued and distributed to an appropriate audience.

Key points:

We may only issue and distribute ETOs to you if we have taken reasonable steps to ensure that you are likely to fall within our target market.

As set out more fully in our Target Market Determination for ETOs, available here (“TMD”), we consider that the target market for ETOs includes a retail client (“Client”) who fit into one (or more) of the following categories:

  • High Risk Tolerance Investors – Clients who have a higher risk appetite, relatively high and stable income, substantial spare capital, are able to withstand material losses and seek to make a profit trading ETOs;
  • Risk Mitigation Investors – Clients seeking to hedge potential risk from existing or forthcoming investments or exposures, or lock in a price to purchase or sell underlying investments; or
  • Premium Generation Investors – Clients seeking to earn income by selling options covered by holdings or underlying investments.

What if I want more information?

Customers can review ASIC’s regulatory guide on the product design and distribution obligations directly on ASIC’s webpage here:
