FSC. Conference Theme 2023
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.
Growing Financial Confidence & Wellbeing in Aotearoa 2022
The FSC. Conference 2022 theme reflected the FSC. Vision to ‘Grow the Financial Confidence and Wellbeing of New Zealanders’.
Our 2022 theme built on those from previous conferences including ReGenerations, and acted as our guide as we continue our journey through uncertain pandemic and economic times.
We welcomed over 645 delegates, sponsors and speakers back in person to the FSC. Conference 2022 at The Cordis Hotel in Auckland over the 21 + 22 September 2022.
ReGenerations Conference 2021
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.
The 2021 conference ran digitally over nine weeks with 16 sessions and two conference day sessions, with breakfast, main plenary and sundowner sessions.
With 148 speakers and over 37 sessions, the ReGenerations Digital Conference 2021 saw over 950 registrations with over 4000 session attendees.
Generations Conference 2020
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.
The 2020 conference was fully digital over three days, with breakfast, main plenary and sundowner sessions.
With 120+ speakers and over 35 sessions, the Generations Digital Conference 2020 saw 1550 live attendees.

Good Shepherd NZ is a charitable non-government organisation that was established to address the critical, contemporary issues facing women, girls and whānau. The work they do to address economic harm, get families out of debt, create healthy financial relationships and much more is so incredibly important to FSC's vision to grow the financial confidence and wellbeing of New Zealanders. They are currently seeking donations from both corporate and individuals to continue their Economic Harm Support Service, a much-needed service for people to deal with the financial impact of family violence.
