flag New Zealand pauses climate reporting rules for 2025/2026 to ease compliance amid pending laws.

flag New Zealand’s Financial Markets Authority (FMA) will not enforce climate reporting requirements for certain entities during the 2025/2026 period, starting November 1, 2025, due to pending legislative changes. flag Entities with balance dates on or before June 30, 2025, must still submit climate statements by October 31, 2025, if preparations began before the government’s October 22 announcement. flag The temporary "no action" relief aims to reduce compliance costs and support market stability amid uncertainty. flag No application is needed, and the FMA may reassess before the next reporting period. flag Voluntary reporting remains allowed but must follow fair dealing rules. flag The relief does not protect against third-party legal claims.
