Assessments of RITS

The most recent of these assessments was completed in 2024.

IMF FSAP Assessment of RITS

In December 2005, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) assessed RITS against the Core Principles as part of its Financial Sector Assessment Program (FSAP) assessment of Australia. The assessment found RITS to be a sound and efficient system that complies with all the applicable Core Principles. The assessment also found that the Reserve Bank fulfils its responsibilities in applying the Core Principles. The IMF published its detailed assessment of RITS in November 2006. (The assessment can be found starting on page 129 of the document Australia: Financial Sector Assessment Program – Detailed Assessment of Observance of Standards and Codes on the IMF website.)
