Section 601EC — Corporations Act 2001 (Cth)

All documents etc. lodged with ASIC to bear ARSN or ABN

After a managed investment scheme is registered, all documents relating to the scheme that are lodged with ASIC must set out:

(a) the scheme’s ARSN; or

(b) if the last 9 digits of the scheme’s ARSN are the same, and in the same order, as the last 9 digits of its ABN—the scheme’s ABN.

Note: In any case where the scheme’s ARSN would be used, the scheme’s ABN may be used instead if section 1344 is satisfied.
