The commission pulled in $428,000 from application fees, against budgeted income from this source of $320,000, according to its annual report.
Last financial year, a government grant of $2.2 million provided the bulk of the commission's funding. Chairman Euan Abernethy said an increased government grant, up from $1.9 million in the previous year, allowed the commission to increase the level of surveillance and enforcement.
For the year to June 2000, the commission increased its output more than 21%.
It concluded eight inquiries into insider trading, three of which resulted in public reports.
