Foreign branches in Australia: The implications of APRA’s finalised IRRBB (APS 117) and Liquidity Risk changes (APS 210)

In recent weeks, APRA has finalised revisions to its framework for Interest Rate Risk in the Banking Book (IRRBB) requirements, issuing the final revised Prudential Standard APS 117 Capital Adequacy: Interest Rate Risk in the Banking Book (APS 117). The final revised APS 117 will be effective from 1 October 2025. Additionally, APRA has finalised targeted reforms to banks' liquidity and capital requirements to strengthen their ability to respond to future stress events, confirming plans to proceed with two of the three proposed measures. These reforms will come into effect on 1 July 2025, and the final versions of the updated APS 210 are already available on APRA’s website.

We welcome you to this presentation hosted by RegCentric where we will discuss how Foreign Branches ADI’s are affected by these changes.
