The FMA is New Zealand's financial markets conduct regulator. We're responsible for promoting and facilitating fair, efficient, and transparent financial markets in New Zealand.

We were established in 2011 as an Independent Crown entity. We are dedicated to promoting and facilitating fair, efficient, and transparent financial markets, characterised by fair access, suitable products, quality advice, transparent actions and integrity. Our goal is to ensure New Zealand businesses, consumers and investors believe the financial services sector works well for them.

Our approach to regulation is based on working closely with the financial services industry. We seek to influence how firms manage risks to consumer and market outcomes. We support innovation, believing that New Zealanders should have access to cutting-edge financial services and products that enhance their lives.
