BNP Paribas Securities Services accredited as depository participant
NZX has accredited BNP Paribas Securities Services* as a depository participant of the New
Zealand Clearing and Depository Corporation Limited (NZX Clearing).
BNP Paribas Securities Services is the first global custodian to join NZX Clearing Depository
since it was founded in 2010. This accreditation continues BNP Paribas Securities Services’
ability to offer differentiated and innovative services to their clients, including bringing buy-side
and sell-side clients closer together in the market.
BNP Paribas’ Location Manager of the New Zealand business Doug Cameron, said: “We are
delighted with this accreditation which enables us to offer market participants an agnostic
approach for depository and settlement channels. The NZX depository access aligns with our
Augmented Custody programme which aims to increase process automation and achieve faster
corporate actions and income announcements.
This initiative compliments our strategy to access new market segments and bring new
solutions to our global sell-side clients.” concluded Mr. Cameron.
NZX Executive Director for Markets Development & Clearing, Benjamin Phillips, commented:
“The accreditation of BNP Paribas Securities Services’ reinforces NZX’s commitment to provide
the New Zealand market with an increasingly efficient, innovative and cost effective central
securities depository service.”
“This accreditation will continue to ensure NZX provides investors in our capital market with
greater choice in relation to the way their financial assets are held, and the cost they incur for
central securities depository services.”
BNP Paribas Securities Services Participant accreditation is effective immediately.
BNP Paribas Securities Services accreditation follows Hobson Wealth Partners Limited
accreditation as an NZX cash market trading and clearing participant in July 2018. These
accreditations underpin NZX’s commitment to increasing participation within the exchange to
provide greater choice for investors looking to access the New Zealand market.
