Financial Services Councils (FSC) of Australia and New Zealand have announced the inaugural Trans-Tasman Strategic Leaders Summit for the financial sector, set to take place from 5-7 March 2024 in Auckland.

The summit aims to bring together industry leaders, regulators, and political figures to discuss important issues in the financial services sector.

The summit will cover various sectors represented by the associations, including superannuation and Kiwisaver, funds management, insurance, and financial advice. It will facilitate discussions among industry leaders, regulators, and political leaders from the region.

Keynote addresses, panel discussions, workshop sessions, and a gala dinner will be featured during the event, providing delegates with valuable insights into shared regional challenges.

Topics of discussion will include the future of financial advice regulation, the impact of climate change on investing, sustainable retirement solutions, insurance, and regional economic uncertainty.

The summit will also provide partnership opportunities for organizations to showcase their latest software, products, and technical solutions to the financial services industry.

Richard Klipin, CEO of FSC New Zealand, expressed excitement about the event.

"This is an exciting first for the financial services sector, a regional leadership summit that will take a global focus to financial services policy and regulation," Klipin said.

Blake Briggs, CEO of FSC Australia, emphasized the significance of the joint regional summit.

"The Strategic Leaders Summit will allow industry leaders to network and collaborate on a regional stage, particularly for organizations and service providers with a global footprint that operate, or are looking to operate, in both Australia and New Zealand, and across the Asia-Pacific," Briggs said.
