Run by advisers, for advisers
FAMNZ exists to represent the interests of New Zealand’s finance and mortgage advisers.
FAMNZ is run by advisers, for advisers. We exist to protect the professionalism integrity and longevity of our industry, create competition with banks to benefit New Zealand loan customers, and advocate for advisers operating in our country.
International alliances
Our influence is the result of strong connections, with key decision-makers and with other industry bodies both within NZ and beyond our borders. Two key international connections are with FBAA and IMBF.
- FBAA – FAMNZ has allegiance with and is a part of the FBAA family, the Finance Brokers Association of Australasia Ltd, which has been leading the way in advocacy for Australian finance and mortgage brokers since 1993. FAMNZ is run by the FBAA in conjunction with a New Zealand Advisory Committee and local Country Manager, and having access to invaluable guidance and advice.
- IMBF – Through FBAA FAMNZ Managing Director Peter White, FAMNZ has been invited to be a part of the International Federation of Mortgage Brokers (IMBF). The IMBF brings together finance and mortgage brokers and advisers from six jurisdiction – UK, US, Canada, Ireland, Australia and Netherlands – to discuss challenges and opportunities and workshop solutions. We now add New Zealand to this group’s Global Board of Governors.
