    Financial Markets Conduct Act exemptions consultation paper

    The offer and management of most financial products will fall under the standard ‘regulated offer’ regime or within the Schedule 1 statutory exclusions. However, there are a few areas where the FMA may need to use class exemptions, frameworks, or methodologies and designations (the FMA’s
    legislative tools).
    We want preliminary comments on matters we believe should be considered for support by the
    FMA’s legislative tools, but for which we have not yet developed policy proposals. Your feedback will
    be considered in the development of our proposals
