FMA Update on Liquidation Proceedings for Chance Voight Group

Media Release
MR No. 2026 – 5

The Financial Markets Authority (FMA) – Te Mana Tātai Hokohoko – confirms that it continues to seek orders in the High Court to place the following entities into liquidation: 

  • Chance Voight Investment Corporation Limited
  • Chance Voight Investment Partners Limited
  • CVI Partners Mortgage Fund Limited
  • CVI Partners Mortgage Income Fund Limited
  • CVI Securities Limited
  • CVI Financial Limited 

Pending the Court’s decision on the liquidation application, all of the above entities remain in interim liquidation under the control of PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC).  

The first call in the High Court for the liquidation application is scheduled for 19 February 2026.  At the first call, the FMA intends to ask the Court to schedule a hearing at the earliest convenient date after 20 April 2026 to determine its application to place the companies in liquidation.  

The FMA has also asked the High Court to release of PwC’s interim liquidation report, which is currently subject to a suppression order.  The FMA considers there is strong public interest in the report being made available to investors and the wider public, subject to any redactions considered necessary by PwC (including for the purpose of protecting commercially sensitive material).  The Court may also determine the application for release of the PwC report at the first call on 19 February 2026.  

The Court will confirm a hearing date for the FMA’s liquidation application in due course.
