The primary focus for the remainder of FY22 will be the full integration of the PrimaryMarkets platform into the Complii platform to maximise existing client and adviser uptake of the new PrimaryMarkets Trading Platform capabilities.

Complii also continues to concentrate development resources on enhancements of existing modules, projects designed to deliver new modules and, on the core architecture of the platform. All projects are constructed to deliver on new and changing compliance obligations and operational related efficiencies to our clients and onboarding new clients to the platform.

Complii Group will concentrate on growing existing subscriber activity of the new private trading capabilities, as integration of PrimaryMarkets' unlisted share trading capabilities into the wider suite of the Complii's Corporate Highway and operating modules, which should generate further opportunities for existing subscribers to extend their subscriptions of additional Complii modules.

Complii continues to explore appropriate and synergistic business aggregation/expansion opportunities, whilst remaining attentive on the success of the Group's organic growth strategy, developing, and delivering new products and services to existing AFSL clients, their licensed users and grow the customer and investor network base.
