Illustration for Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013

When you keep accounting records, you must keep them at your registered office or at another place your directors think is suitable. You can keep your accounting records at a place outside New Zealand, but you must send documents to New Zealand that will help you prepare your financial statements. These documents must include information required by any enactment, and they must be about the business dealt with in those accounting records, including the financial statements of the FMC reporting entity and any registered scheme referred to in section 455.
