APRA has found risk flaws with insurer Auto & General.
Auto & General’s brands include Budget Direct.
APRA has taken action against 2 other insurers in past 2 years.
Auto & General, the insurer behind cheap insurance brand Budget Direct, has been criticised by regulators for its “weak”, ineffective and “immature” risk defences.
It will have to stump up an extra $50 million in capital and investigate the cause of the failures, the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority said on Tuesday.
