Trio Capital compensation
Dear Australian Prudential Regulation Authority,
I am writing to request documents under the Freedom of Information Act 1982 that are held by the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) and pertain to the Trio Capital case.
The specific documents I am interested in are:
Records that provide evidence of fraudulent activities in the management of Trio Capital’s funds, as well as documents about the evaluation for compensation under the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (SIS Act).
Documents related to the information given by the former Secretary to the Treasury, Ken Henry, to regulators both in Australia and globally. It has been reported in Australian media that the whistleblower was a blogger who had connections to Ken Henry.
Specific documents associated with an equity joint venture managed by Empyreal SPC Limited. This includes, but is not limited to, contracts, agreements, financial audits, and any related correspondence.
Communications and emails regarding the value of the Equity JV and its eligibility to be classified as fraudulent under the provisions of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 (SIS Act).
Notes concerning any individuals linked with Empyreal SPC and any internal consultations or official misconduct complaints.
I would be grateful if the documents could be provided in a digital format. If there are any charges associated with the search or copying of these documents, please inform me prior to proceeding.
Should you need any further clarification regarding this request, please feel free to contact me.
Thank you for your assistance.
Best regards,
ELCAP

Dear Freedom of Information,
I have posted documents that may be responsive and held by APRA and ASIC. I note that ASIC Chairman Longo made note of an existential risk that may be the cause for why documents such as these which refute the findings made by former ASIC director of enforcement Jan Redfern were not provided during her AAT banning hearings.
Additionally to save expenses please inform Allygroup/ ACE/ Chubb that I would like a copy of the Trio Capital Claim file.
Yours sincerely,
