FINANCIAL SECTOR: CONDUCT STANDARD PUBLISHED FOR COLLECTIVE INVESTMENT SCHEME MANAGERS

The Financial Sector Conduct Authority has published a conduct standard for collective investment scheme managers. Released in draft form in November 2023 for public comment, the new standard prescribes requirements to be met in respect of:

  • business principles, governance and control
  • conflicts of interest
  • portfolio development
  • pre-contractual disclosure documents/prospectuses
  • custodianship, and
  • material events.

The conduct standard does not apply to the managers of collective investment schemes in participation bonds.
