    Record keeping self assessment tool

    Keeping accurate records of the financial advice you provide helps maintain a relationship of transparency and trust with your clients. It also ensures you can provide evidence of how you have complied with your licensee obligations as and when required.
    Use this self-assessment tool to see if you’re ready to complete the record keeping section of your Class 1 or Class 2 FAP full licence application. It should help you identify areas of strength or weakness in your full licence preparation so you can seek further help or advice and address any gaps before you apply.

    FMA XRB Enhanced auditor reporting 2020

    Enhanced auditor reporting is a joint FMA and XRB report that looks at the evolution of trends in key audit matter reporting in the three years since the revised auditor’s report was introduced. Key audit matters are issues that, in the auditor’s view, were of most significance to the audit of a company’s financial statements – for example, a company’s valuation of goodwill or its revenue recognition. KAMs are intended to provide transparency and give users of the financial statements a better understanding of how the audit was conducted and complexities that arose. This is the 2020 report.

    Review of credit card repayment insurance products

    In our 2019 Life Insurer Conduct and Culture review, we found that “certain products often provided poor value, and consequently poor outcomes for customers, because of limited benefits, and misunderstanding of coverage and eligibility”.
    We carried out this additional review to gain a better understanding of the suitability of CCRI for consumers.
    While most providers have withdrawn CCRI products from sale, there are still several hundred thousand existing policies, whose holders may not need or understand the product and are at risk of experiencing poor outcomes if they need to make a claim.
