NZX RULES AND POLICY
During September, the Capital Markets 2029 working group released their report ‘Growing New Zealand’s Capital
Markets 2029’, which is available here. The report contains 42 recommendations that form a vision and growth
agenda to promote stronger capital markets for all New Zealanders. NZX will carefully consider these independent
recommendations, with a view to delivering on the recommendations, alongside Government and industry. NZX
will be reporting on the progress made by all parties against the recommendations in March 2021.
During the quarter, NZX Policy provided a submission on the RBNZ’s consultation ‘Safeguarding the future of our
financial system’ Our submission related to the nature of the RBNZ’s regulatory perimeter. We also provided a
submission in relation to MBIE’s consultation relating to the KiwiSaver default provider settings, where we noted
the effects of the proposals on New Zealand’s capital markets. We have also responded to the FMA’s consultation
on green bonds and responsible investment products, noting the potential these products have to contribute to a
sustainable economy.
In August NZX Policy released a response document, available here noting that the previously proposed market
integrity and liquidity proposals would not proceed at this time. In 2020, NZX will further consider opportunities to
enhance market liquidity and transparency, once the effect of the Trading System upgrade on market behavior has
been considered.
NZX Policy is currently consulting on the introduction of the Mid-Point Order Book, an anonymous unlit order book,
which NZX intends to make available in 2020, alongside the Trading System upgrade. The consultation paper is
available here, and submissions are due by 15 November 2019.
NOTES
The metrics are derived from NZX’s internal records.
1. Trading halts imposed routinely, for example on release of price-sensitive information or in the context of
corporate actions are excluded.
2. Details of waivers granted by NZX are released to the Market, and available on https://nzx.com/ and through i-
Search except where the decisions are confidential.
3. NZX will commence an investigation when it identifies a possible breach of rules.
