This report summarises the AML/CFT measures in place in New Zealand as at the date of the on-site visit from 26 February to 15 March 2020. It analyses the level of compliance with the FATF 40 Recommendations and the level of effectiveness of New Zealand’s AML/CFT system, and provides recommendations on how the system could be strengthened. Key Findings a) New Zealand has a robust understanding of its money laundering and terrorist financing (ML/TF) risks. It has established a comprehensive multi-tiered risk assessment process, with its national risk assessment (NRA) undergoing two full cycles. National AML/CFT policies and activities address identified ML/TF risks to a substantial extent. Authorities have taken action to respond to emerging TF risks in the context of a lower overall risk profile. Domestic co-ordination and co-operation are strengths of New Zealand’s AML/CFT system. b) New Zealand’s law enforcement agencies (LEAs) regularly use financial intelligence. The New Zealand Police Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) produces and disseminates a wide range of financial intelligence products, which generally support the operational needs of competent authorities. However, New Zealand authorities could benefit from better exploiting the potential of financial intelligence to detect criminal activity by persons not already known to law enforcement. c) New Zealand identifies and pursues parallel money laundering investigations alongside investigations of significant proceeds- generating. Its authorities are adequately skilled and trained to conduct financial investigations with a wide range of investigative tools are available to them. Financial investigations are increasingly being used to support prosecution on money laundering charges and the number of prosecutions into ML have increased since 2018. Anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing measures in New Zealand – ©2021 | FATF, APG 44 | 4EXECUTIVE SUMMARY d) New Zealand Police has a strong focus on confiscation of proceeds of crime, backed by a top-level target for the volume of criminal assets to be restrained (NZD 500 million by 2021). The skilled Asset Recovery Unit (ARU) works in co-operation with investigative authorities to initiate parallel restraint and forfeiture proceedings in response to identified crime and financial intelligence. New Zealand has pursued international asset recovery cases that involve significant volumes of inbound and outbound proceeds. e) There is sound co-operation and co-ordination between New Zealand Police’s National Security Group (NSG), Financial Crime Group (FCG) (including the NZPFIU) and other relevant agencies on monitoring possible Terrorist Financing. Following the 2019 Christchurch attacks, New Zealand demonstrated its capacity and effectiveness in undertaking and supporting terrorism financing investigations. New Zealand has not prosecuted any terrorism financing cases, which is consistent with its generally low TF risk profile. f) There is a strong legislative framework for the implementation of targeted financial sanctions (TFS) without delay. However, reporting entities have a variable understanding of TFS, due to limited guidance and outreach by relevant authorities, as well as the lack of a mandate for supervisors to undertake supervision of TFS implementation. No assets have been frozen in New Zealand pursuant to TFS regimes. While this may be consistent with New Zealand’s risk profile, it could also reflect the limited TFS guidance, and the lack of outreach and supervision on TFS. New Zealand authorities have prosecuted a contravention of export restrictions under UNSC DPRK sanctions. g) New Zealand

  • Origins of NZ English

    Origins of NZ English

    Origins of NZ English There are three basic theories about the origins of New Zealand English, each with minor variants. Although they are usually presented as alternative theories, they are not necessarily incompatible. The theories are: • New Zealand English is a version of 19th century Cockney (lower-class London) speech; • New Zealand English is a version of Australian English; • New Zealand English developed independently from all other varieties from the mixture of accents and dialects that the Anglophone settlers in New Zealand brought with them. New Zealand as Cockney The idea that New Zealand English is Cockney English derives from the perceptions of English people. People not themselves from London hear some of the same pronunciations in New Zealand that they hear from lower-class Londoners. In particular, some of the vowel sounds are similar. So the vowel sound in a word like pat in both lower-class London English and in New Zealand English makes that word sound like pet to other English people. There is a joke in England that sex is what Londoners get their coal in. That is, the London pronunciation of sacks sounds like sex to other English people. The same joke would work with New Zealanders (and also with South Africans and with Australians, until very recently). Similarly, English people from outside London perceive both the London and the New Zealand versions of the word tie to be like their toy. But while there are undoubted similarities between lower-class London English and New Zealand (and South African and Australian) varieties of English, they are by no means identical.

Abstract 1. This paper is a written contribution to the Competition Committee’s call for country contributions to the roundtable on 23 July 2020, to be discussed at the Hearing on “Sustainability and Competition” on 1 December 2020. 2. For much of its history, competition law has largely focused on promoting consumer welfare as its primary objective.1 Recently though, there has been a growing school of thought that competition law’s objectives should be broadened to incorporate other public policy considerations, including sustainability.2 3. Without discrediting the merit of these additional public policy objectives, and subject to some qualifications discussed below, Australia and New Zealand’s competition authorities hold the position that competition legislation should remain focused on protecting the competitive process by applying a consumer welfare standard.

  • Case Study: New Zealand

    Case Study: New Zealand

    Case Study: New Zealand Background Because of its geographic location, its dependence on tourism, and the absence of a comprehensive rail network, New Zealand has developed a large international and national airports network over the years. Until 1966, almost all New Zealand important airports were developed by the State and remained under the central Government ownership and management. There are three main international airports. First, Auckland Airport is the busiest and the main international airport. It is the only airport serving the Auckland metropolitan area, which gathers a third of the country’s total population. Second, Wellington International Airport is also a major domestic hub serving mainly business and government. International flights at Wellington Airport are principally from/to Australia. Third, Christchurch International Airport is the major international airport in the South Island, where it acts as the main hub and attracts a significant share of New Zealand’s international tourist traffic. There are other international airports in New Zealand, such as Dunedin, Hamilton, Queenstown, and Palmerston North, which also get flights from other countries (mainly Australia). Other commercial airports serve domestic and regional traffic. Commercialization/privatization: Airports The commercialization of New Zealand’s airports started early. First, the 1961 Joint Airport Scheme established the principles that resulted in both central and local governments jointly owning and operating airport facilities. The objective of this policy was both to benefit from the expertise of local governments on regional economic needs and opportunities, and to make local government directly invest in airport infrastructure. In 1974, 24 airports throughout New Zealand were under a joint venture ownership.
