    Consultation: Renewal of class exemption for dual language (English and te reo Māori) product disclosure statements

    We are reviewing whether to renew for a further five years an existing class exemption notice that allows product disclosure statements to be provided in full in both te reo Māori and English (dual language PDSs). This exemption provides relief to issuers of financial products from the prescribed length limits and, if necessary, some prescribed statements and formatting. The two languages provided in the PDS must accurately and fully reflect each other, and both comprise the entire PDS.

    Matthew Hill

    The FMA alleged that between February 2013 and July 2020, Mr Hill made dozens of posts on Sharetrader in a thread about New Talisman under two usernames, “bullish” and “Epithermal”. Mr Hill, who is also a director and shareholder of New Talisman, did not, at any point, disclose his involvement in the company, the FMA asserts in the claim. Mr Hill’s conduct was revealed in July 2020 when Sharetrader publicly identified him as the person behind the usernames.
