Supervision of companies

The reputation of ASX's markets for fairness and integrity is very important to ASX. Maintaining this reputation involves constant and vigilant supervision of companies.

Institutional investor seminars

ASX is involved in a wide range of investor education activities.  Small and medium-sized companies often suffer from a lack of institutional investor awareness.  ASX runs and takes part in seminars that bring companies, institutional investors and brokers together in a forum that encourages fund manager interest in mid and small caps.  These seminars usually take the form of CEO showcase events - where over a period of one or two days, CEOs are given the opportunity to present to funds managers and brokers about their latest developments.  Events are usually industry and sector based. 

Reporting for mineral resources and ore reserves

The Australasian Joint Ore Reserves Committee (JORC) code provides guidance on reporting of reserves and resources by mining companies and is internationally recognised and imitated. The Code has proved highly effective and is integral to the fundraising success of the mining industry.

A revised version of the JORC code became effective on 17 December 2004 -
Appendix 5A - Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (The JORC Code) (DOC 335KB)
List of Recognised Overseas Professional Organisations accepted for reporting under Appendix 5A (JORC Code) (PDF 73KB)
