Minister Kris Faafoi

Commerce and Consumer Affairs Minister Kris Faafoi will speak to Financial Advice New Zealand members.

As members will know, he’s the minister behind the Financial Services Legislation Amendment Act (FSLAA) and the Financial Markets (Conduct of Institutions) Amendment Bill (CoFI), which is before a select committee. Once the COVID-19 restrictions hit he agreed to extend the transitional licensing application window part of FSLAA to early next year (most likely March), with the new Code of Professional Conduct for Financial Advice Services to come into force at the same time.

We’re hoping he can give members an overview of the Government’s response to COVID-19 and how that response is helping advisers and the sector/small business, an update on where CoFI and transitional licensing.
