Australia's corporate 1 regulator has accused WestPac of the multimillion dollar rigging of interest rate trading. Now, the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, known ASIC, has brought charges against WestPac for what it calls unconscionable conduct in relation to the bank bill swap 2 rate between 2010 and 2012. The charges follow similar action against ANZ last month, but WestPac has rejected the allegations, saying it will rigorously defend the court action. Resources Minister Josh Frydenburg says the allegations are very serious and they need to be thouroughly investigated. 


I think these changes are starting to take hold but with their serious allegations. You would expect our independent corporate regulator to investigate them. 


Mr. Josh Frydenburg is there. 


Meanwhile, former Commonwealth 3 Bank chief David Murray has launched a scathing 4  attack on ASIC for championing the idea that company directors should be held legally responsible for poor company culture. Now Mr. Murray said attempts to regulate these matters had parallels to Nazi 5 Germany. 


There have been people in the world who've tried to enforce culture. Oh, Adolf Hitler comes to the mind. You, you cannot sure, if you want to say...


I'm not sure if ASIC would appreciate the comparison.


If you want people to be free, you cannot do that.
