    Exemption notice - some property schemes

    The FMA believes that property schemes generally can and should comply with the same licensing and governance requirements under the FMC Act as other managed investment schemes (MIS).

    investors. As a result, we have approved class exemptions for property schemes and their custodians to address these matters.
