ASIC has requested that ASX establish a high-level industry advisory group to support ASXs CHESS replacement project. It is proposed that this group is independently chaired and will advise on significant strategic clearing and settlement issues relating to cash equities trading in Australian markets with a focus on CHESS replacement.

The proposed solution will be discussed at an industry roundtable on 2 August 2023. The industry roundtable will be chaired by ASIC Chair Joe Longo who will be joined by ASIC Commissioner Danielle Press and the Deputy Governor of the Reserve Bank of Australia, Michele Bullock.

Attending the roundtable will be a small group of recognised industry leaders. ASICs initiative follows longstanding industry concerns over the adequacy of ASXs stakeholder engagement and governance. This includes on-going concern with ASXs management of intragroup conflict of interests.

ASXs effective engagement with industry is an urgent issue that must be resolved in order for the overall project to get back on track, said Mr Longo. The establishment of an appropriate stakeholder advisory group for cash equity clearing and settlement matters is critical to the restoration of confidence in ASXs decision-making and culture.

More than twelve industry leaders have been invited to attend the roundtable, drawn from different stakeholder sectors and fields of expertise.

ASIC expects each attendee to act in the public interest and to work constructively towards a solution.

It is vital that ASX gets its stakeholder engagement on the CHESS replacement right. Ultimately all parties, including ASX, will need to be committed to genuine collaboration and consultation and to the success of an advisory body. The industry now has the opportunity to be part of that solution, and it is in the national interest to do so.

ASIC is Australias corporate, markets and financial services regulator.

If we are to compare football to chess, one could readily equate the quarterback with a knight or bishop. The movements arent always linear, and the effects on the opposition can be devastating, particularly if the defense doesnt already have an awareness of how the piece (player) moves.

Lincoln Riley doesnt want to give the opposition a clear read on how he moves his pieces on the chessboard. This came through in a Riley Files podcast episode from last summer. Oklahoma expert Kegan Reneau shares this insight:

He (Riley) would say, You guys know I dont talk about my scheme or anything like this out in the media. Hes very, very introverted, very reserved, Reneau said. In Los Angeles (referring to the 2022 offseason), he has done a bunch of media tours. He said a bunch of different things without saying the main thing people wanna know, which is why you left Oklahoma. He just said a bunch of different things that dont add up, as well as throwing in, Hey, alignment, vision resources, all that fun stuff.

Riley doesnt want to offer that central, essential clue about his next move.

An IRL Chess stream by alyssazhu went wrong as her camera was knocked over before a racist tirade against one of her opponents while live on Twitch.

IRL streaming has long been one of Twitchs most controversial genres, as IRL streams have seen many problems such as swatting, streamers performing sexually explicit acts, and showing abusive acts on camera, just to name a few examples.

Despite its controversies, many creators want to bring their streams outside of their normal setting, which was what chess streamer Alyssazhu did when she hosted a recent IRL stream in a park. inviting parkgoers to games of chess.

However, the broadcast faced a few issues, in particular, a passerby intentionally knocked down her camera in the middle of a game, which was eventually followed by a separate racist tirade from another passerby.

In a clip of her camera being knocked over, we can see Alyssa concentrate on her game of chess as observers around the table eye a person out of the frame. The person would eventually go past the camera and knock it over.

People off-camera asked why he had knocked over the camera, with Alyssa remaining mostly silent, of which was responded with a flurry of cursing.

Later into the same stream, another random passerby would racially abuse an opponent of Alyssas during a match, seemingly unprompted.

During a match, noticeably later into the day around sunset, a passerby off camera suddenly approaches Alyssas table and hurls a racist tirade upon her opponent.

The person off-camera can be heard saying, Im sitting here minding my business, you dont f***ing think about me you f***ing goof. You f***ing stand there and f***ing vegetate you f***ing n*****.

It was quite clear the tirade surprised the table, but they just smiled at each other without much thought and continued their game of chess.

The VOD for the stream was eventually taken down by Alyssa, most likely to avoid getting a community ban due to the racist rant.
