What "distribution" means here

Under New Zealand's Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013, every Financial Advice Provider (FAP) must publish a Public Disclosure Statement under section 431 covering — among other things — the product providers they are appointed to distribute. FinanceAdvisersNZ mirrors these PDSes and parses the product-panel section into structured data so that comparison across FAPs becomes possible.

Being on a FAP's product panel does not mean the FAP exclusively recommends that provider — most FAPs distribute a small set of providers per product category and recommend within that set based on client suitability. It does mean the FAP has a commercial arrangement (commission, share of fees, or other consideration) with the provider that consumers should understand before engaging.

How to use this page

If you want a New Zealand financial adviser who can advise on Insurance businesses licensed by the Reserve Bank under section 19 of the Insurance (Prudential Supervisor) Act 2010 with minimum financial strength rating of A products, this list narrows your choice to 1 FAP. Click through to a FAP's profile page to read their full disclosure statement, see fee structure, and view conflict-of-interest disclosures before making contact.

If you want the opposite question — "what products does my adviser's FAP distribute?" — go to your adviser's profile and read the Distribution Panel section.

Methodology, freshness, and limits

  • Source: Mirror of FAP Public Disclosure Statements filed under FMC Act 2013 s431. We are not the publisher of any PDS — we mirror what each FAP has made public.
  • Extraction: Product-provider names are extracted from PDS markdown by Claude (LLM-extracted, confidence tier C). For original wording, refer to each FAP's own publication via the FSPR register entry linked from their profile page.
  • Coverage: FinanceAdvisersNZ currently has PDS data on file for ~51 of ~521 NZ FAPs (10%). Coverage grows as we ingest more PDSes. A FAP not listed here may still distribute Insurance businesses licensed by the Reserve Bank under section 19 of the Insurance (Prudential Supervisor) Act 2010 with minimum financial strength rating of A — we simply do not yet have their PDS in our corpus.
  • Freshness: PDS data is re-checked quarterly. Each FAP profile page shows the version date of the PDS we have on file.
  • Name normalisation: We do not currently normalise product-provider name variants (e.g. "ASB Bank" vs "ASB"). Future data-quality pass will collapse variants.
