• ASIC has concluded its governance investigation into WiseTech and issued the company a no-action letter.
  • ASIC has also concluded its trading investigation into founder Richard White and two other current employees, issuing each a no-action letter.
  • An investigation is continuing into another individual who is not a company employee, with no timetable given.

WiseTech Global Limited (ASX:WTC) announced on 15 October 2026 that two matters involving the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) have been resolved so far as the company and certain people are concerned. The announcement was authorised for release by the Board and was numbered 2026/67.

The governance investigation

The first matter is an ASIC investigation into the company's governance, which the release says began in late 2024. WiseTech said ASIC has now concluded that investigation and has issued the company a no-action letter. In the company's description, that confirms ASIC does not intend to take enforcement action in relation to the investigation.

The trading investigation

The second matter concerns alleged trading in WiseTech shares. According to the release, this investigation was first announced by the company on 28 October 2025. WiseTech said ASIC has concluded its investigation into founder Richard White and two other current WiseTech employees, and has issued each of them a no-action letter. The company explained that this means ASIC will take no enforcement action against them.

The release also contains an important limit. WiseTech said ASIC has told it that an investigation is continuing into another individual who is not a company employee. The announcement does not name that person, describe the allegations in any further detail or say when that part of the work may finish. The matter has therefore not been fully closed from a regulatory standpoint, even though it no longer concerns the company's own staff.

Company comment

WiseTech's Independent Chair, Raelene Murphy, described the resolution as another step forward for the company and said its focus remains on long-term Shareholder value. The announcement does not quantify any costs associated with the investigations, does not refer to any change in Earnings guidance, and does not discuss other regulatory or legal matters.

Company background

The following background comes from the company's standard description at the foot of the release rather than from the announcement's substantive text. WiseTech says more than 20,000 logistics companies and other industry participants across 193 countries use its software, including 47 of the top 50 global third-party logistics providers and 24 of the 25 largest global freight forwarders, citing Armstrong & Associates data updated on 11 May 2026. It says its Acquisition of e2open expanded its network to more than 500,000 connected enterprises, and that it delivered more than 6,500 product enhancements to its CargoWise platform between FY22 and FY26.

What the announcement does and does not show

The documents confirm outcomes for the company and for Mr White and two employees, as reported by WiseTech. They do not include the ASIC letters themselves, and the description of their effect is the company's. The release does not set out further steps. The only pending item it identifies is ASIC's continuing investigation into the person who is not a company employee, for which no timetable was given.
