This Prudential Standard sets out minimum foundations for good governance of an RSE licensee. Its objective is to ensure that an RSE licensee’s business operations are managed soundly and prudently by a competent Board, which can make reasonable and impartial business judgements in the best interests of beneficiaries and which duly considers the impact of its decisions on beneficiaries.

Prudential Standard SPS 510 Governance (SPS 510) sets out APRA’s requirements in relation to the governance of a registrable superannuation entity (RSE) licensee’s (RSE licensee’s) business operations.
