read articleVFMC people subscribe to a high level of accountability in their daily conduct, behaviours and investment approach. We are accountable to each other, our clients and the people of Victoria. Specifically, we adhere to a strict prudential standard, codes of conduct, risk framework and various internal policies and processes.
As part of its management and operational oversight, VFMC is subject to independent and external prudential supervision.
Our annual financial report is also audited by the independent Victorian Auditor General’s Office.
The Victorian Government (the Government) has significant financial assets and liabilities that need to be managed in a professional and efficient manner. Prudential supervision encourages and promotes prudent behaviour by managers with the objective of ensuring the long-term solvency or viability of an institution and, in turn, protecting the interests of all stakeholders. The Government has established an overarching framework of legislation, policy and guidelines for the management of public sector agencies.

VFMC’s risk management approach is overseen by its independent Audit, Risk & Compliance Board Committee.
VFMC supports the Public Sector Values set down in the Public Administration Act 2004:
We are also guided by strong people policies and processes, designed specifically for VFMC.
