    FAQs about our immediate priorities during the COVID-19 response and recovery

    It's not yet known how long the pandemic will continue to impact New Zealand’s financial sector. Work on our medium-term strategic priorities is ongoing, but we recognise COVID-19 poses immediate challenges and could seriously undermine consumer confidence and damage the wider sector. We will also continue to progress the medium-term strategic activities that support our statutory objective of fair, efficient and transparent financial markets.The immediate priorities in this FAQ document relate to the foreseeable three to six month timeframe. However, we also plan to publish a corporate plan later this year outlining our key areas of focus and work programme, once there is greater certainty on the impact of COVID-19 on the financial sector. Read our FAQs here.
