What does CPS 230 ask of you?
CPS 230 is APRA's Prudential Standard for Operational Risk Management. It asks banks, insurers and superannuation trustees to know their critical operations, keep them within Board-approved tolerance levels through disruption, and manage the service providers they rely on.
- Operational risk management: know your operational risk profile, keep controls effective, run scenario analysis and handle incidents.
- Business continuity: identify critical operations, set Board-approved tolerance levels, keep a plan that holds you within them and test it, with a business continuity exercise every year.
- Service provider management: a register of material service providers, submitted to APRA every year.
It has applied since 1 July 2025, and in full since 1 July 2026. For the detail, read CPS 230, explained, check what to have in place now, or see the material service provider rules.
