FSC24 Conference
The theme of this year's FSC Conference was Consumer Resilience and Prosperity.
As part of our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion, we recognise the importance of supporting all New Zealanders.
This is represented by the threads depicting flexibility, resilience and that the many different communities globally, within New Zealand and the financial services sector are stronger together.
2023 FSC. Conference
The theme of the Financial Services Council conference this year is Building Consumer Confidence.
As part of our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion, we recognise the importance of supporting all New Zealanders.
This theme is therefore about focussing on how we as an industry can support those who need it most, in all regions of New Zealand and of all gender identities, sexual orientations, cultures, ethnicities, ages and backgrounds.
2022 FSC. Conference
The distinctive Whanake (Cabbage Tree) is one of the most familiar sights across the New Zealand countryside and is often planted to mark trails and boundaries.
The trees played an important part in both Māori and pākehā (New Zealanders of non-Māori descent) cultures being used by Māori for food, fibre and medicine, for example making kete (or baskets), mats and clothing. Early pākehā settlers used the trunk of the Cabbage Tree to line chimneys for their huts due to its fire-resistance, the leaves for kindling and the roots for brewing beer.
In Māori culture, Whanake means to move onwards, upwards, to grow, to spring up, develop and rise and reflects our FSC. Conference 2022 theme, Growing the Financial Confidence and Wellbeing In Aotearoa.
2021 ReGenerations Conference
Our 2021 conference 'ReGenerations' built on previous themes of Wellbeing, Sustainability and Guardianship. The Maori whakataukī (or proverb), He Waka Eke Noa, builds on these themes by highlighting the importance of recovery and going forward together in both good and trying times. With a literal translation 'We are all in this waka (canoe) together' this whakataukī centres in meaning around our whānau and community: being on the same journey, headed to the same destination and leaving no one behind.
2020 Generations Conference
The 2020 theme, Generations, reflected not only the responsibility that the financial services sector has to support our different generations to save, invest and retire well, but also challenged each and every one of us to be better. Better custodians for future Generations, better at supporting our teams and our customers balance their wellbeing, and better at creating a sustainable future.
