    The Consumer Experience with the Financial Sector survey is our inaugural, nationally representative survey of New Zealand consumers. The FMA commissioned the survey to gain a comprehensive understanding of consumer experiences with the financial sector. The research reveals insights into the mindset and motivations of consumers as they manage their money and deal with financial services firms. This research is part of a commitment by the FMA to build a better understanding of consumers to help shape our regulation of the financial sector and deliver on our objectives. The data also provides valuable insights for the financial services industry, other Government agencies and consumer bodies.
