APRA Connect
APRA Connect is the new data collection solution for reporting entities to lodge entity information and data with APRA. APRA Connect will progressively replace Direct to APRA (D2A). Data collected by APRA under the Financial Sector (Collection of Data) Act 2001 is used for prudential supervision, statistical publications and shared with partner agencies
APRA Connect facilitates the development of future data collections which will use broader and more granular data models that can be used by APRA and partner agencies to fulfil multiple data requirements. These models will require less aggregation and are designed to be more aligned to the industry’s underlying data structures. Submission methods will be made available that take into account the complexity of data.
Access APRA Connect at https://connect.apra.gov.au to submit information and data.
