Advocacy objectives

Robust public policy is important for building a more sustainable, prosperous and resilient future. We aim to deliver bold, visible advocacy, and thought leadership, in the public good. 

The main objectives of our advocacy are to: 

• create value for our members, their clients and communities
• achieve better policy outcomes in the public good 
• influence sound legal and regulatory reform, and 
• increase our recognition as trusted advisers with government and other key stakeholders. 

Our policy priorities are advocated through submissions, consultations and ongoing engagement with government, regulators and standard-setters. We also speak out on issues where the profession’s expertise is relevant. 

We have updated our policy priorities for 2026, covering all the areas we engage in.
