"(2) Unless subclause (2A) applies, the financial statements referred to in subclause (1) must be prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Financial Reporting Act 2013 and Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013 as if—

7 Clause 2 of Schedule 1 amended

In clause 2(1)(h)(i) of Schedule 1, omit "having regard to any information or explanations that may have been added by the registered bank under sections 11(2) and 14(2) of the Financial Reporting Act 1993,".

Explanatory note

This note is not part of the Order, but is intended to indicate its general effect.

This Order comes into force on 30 June 2014. It amends the Registered Bank Disclosure Statements (New Zealand Incorporated Registered Banks) Order 2014, published in a Supplement to the New Zealand Gazette, 21 February 2014, No. 21, at page 452, to update references to the Financial Reporting Act 1993, which is being repealed. In most cases, the updated version refers either to the Financial Reporting Act 1993 for banks to which that Act still temporarily applies, or to equivalent provisions in the Financial Reporting Act 2013 and the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013. The reference in Schedule 1 is removed altogether, as there is no equivalent in the new legislation.


This Order is administered by the Reserve Bank of New Zealand
