The Financial Sector Conduct Authority has published standardised application forms to enable retirement funds and benefit administrators to request compliance extensions under Section 279 of the Financial Sector Regulation Act, 2017. The templates delineate prescribed submission timeframes, designate responsible regulatory divisions, and mandate online processing through the Retirement Online System portal. Authorised fund officials must complete and sign the designated forms to formally secure extensions for specified periods, thereby streamlining regulatory compliance across the retirement fund sector.
