Product led Design and Distribution Obligations (DDO) Compliance
Following our blog post on the Design and Distribution Obligations checklist. We are going to explore how to conduct the mandated review when a trigger event or significant dealing occurs to arrive at one of the 5 possible outcomes ASIC has identified.
Here is how Skyjed facilitates the mandated review to arrive at one of the outcomes:
- It allows you select a module of significant event review drivers
- Facilitates a product audit to assess the most appropriate course of action
- Facilitates peer review capturing comments
- Concludes an appropriate outcome and publishes your audit record
- Builds and assigns your action plan for remediation and notification as require
Why Risk and Compliance teams should not be the ones to do this mandated review
Having the right tool to conduct and record this review is crucial to successfully managing and remediating in market products that may have faltered. Join us on Thursday 20th May at 11am to see how Skyjed provides the product owner a complete end-to-end solution for DDO compliance.
Common mistakes companies are making for Target Market Determination:
Companies are making the mistake of creating overarching TMDs instead of product specific ones. That can lead to the inappropriate sale of products to consumers and in turn force ASIC to invoke product intervention powers and remove products from sale. Cutting corners by taking an umbrella approach risks getting the attention of the regulator who is gearing up for efficient mass scale enforcement.

1. Design, distribute and monitor your Target Market Determinations (TMD)
