The RBA upgraded two ASX facilities on operational risk, while finding several standards only partly observed.

Source finding

The RBA rated one or more facilities partly observed for governance, risk frameworks, credit risk and operational risk.

Our analysis

Clearing and settlement are core market infrastructure; resilient operations matter even when daily trading appears normal.

What remains uncertain

The assessment describes controls at the review date, not the probability of a future outage or ASX share-price movement.
