Ms Martin is a Policy Development Manager for the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA), the regulator of the Australian financial services industry.

Working as part of the general insurance division of APRA, Ms Martin consults with a range of stakeholders including government and professional bodies to develop effective and supportive policies for the Australian general insurance industry and policy holders.

These policies form prudential standards and practices that ensure financial promises made by institutions under APRA’s supervision are met with a stable, efficient and competitive financial system.

Ms Martin said APRA played an important role at all times but particularly in times of financial uncertainty.

“General insurance is a very important part of the financial system and Australian economy. I hope to make a valuable contribution to the general insurance industry through my policy development role,” Ms Martin said.
