FEES Schedule 6, table 6.1 (Dealing in Investments as Agent): "assets under brokerage" is not defined
The quarterly levy of 0.0005% applies to "the amount of the assets under brokerage" above 490 million USD. The term is not defined in FEES or in the Glossary, and it is not used in any other AFSA rulebook, so it is unclear whether it means client assets held in brokerage accounts or the volume executed.
Proposed correction
Please clarify which assets are included in "assets under brokerage" at quarter-end and how they are valued.
