(a) money received by the person before the end of the transition period in relation to the person in the capacity of a regulated principal of that kind and to which section 1209 of the old Corporations Act applied; and
(b) money received by the person after the end of the transition period in relation to the person in the capacity of a regulated principal of that kind as a result of:
(i) the payment of interest, dividends or other income from the investment of money mentioned in paragraph (1)(a); or
(ii) the realisation of an investment of money mentioned in paragraph (1)(a); and
(c) money received by the person under subsection 1209(5A) of the old Corporations Act after the end of the transition period in relation to the person in the capacity of a regulated principal of that kind.
Section 1209 of the old Corporations Act, and any associated provisions, continue to apply in relation to the regulated principal after the end of the transition period in relation to:
(a) the person in the capacity of a regulated principal of that kind; and
(b) the money;
as if the regulated principal were a futures broker within the meaning of the old Corporations Act.
Subdivision A of Division 2 of Part 7.8 of the Act, and any associated provisions, apply in relation to the regulated principal as if the money were money to which that Subdivision applied.
A regulated principal must choose whether to deal with the money in accordance with the arrangements mentioned in subregulation (2) or the arrangements mentioned in subregulation (3).
For this regulation, compliance with the arrangements chosen by a regulated principal is also taken to be compliance with the arrangements that the regulated principal did not choose.
