Depositor compensation scheme - Statement of funding approach

245: Minister must publish statement of funding approach

You could also call this:

"The Minister must publish a plan every 5 years on how to fund the depositors' compensation scheme."

Illustration for Deposit Takers Act 2023

The Minister of Finance has to publish a statement about how the depositors' compensation scheme will be funded at least every 5 years. You can think of this statement as a plan for how the scheme will get the money it needs. The Minister also has to consider this statement when deciding how much deposit takers should pay into the scheme, as explained in section 240.

When the Minister publishes a new statement, it is good for 5 years. This 5-year time frame is called the period of the statement. You can expect a new statement to be published after this period is over.

The Minister's job is to make sure you have access to this information, so you can understand how the depositors' compensation scheme is funded.
