New Zealand A. Definitions and sources of data Statistics New Zealand (SNZ) reports data on flows and stocks of foreign direct investment (FDI) in New Zealand, and New Zealand direct investment abroad (NZDIA). In line with international standards, direct investment (DI) is defined as an investment made to acquire a lasting interest in an enterprise resident in an economy other than the investor's, with the purpose of gaining an effective voice in the management of the acquired company. An "effective voice" in the New Zealand context is assumed when ten percent or more of the voting shares of a direct investment enterprise are owned by a direct investor. All transactions and positions between a financing subsidiary and its direct investor are recorded under direct investment, except for non-permanent debt positions and transactions between a bank and its financing subsidiary (recorded under portfolio or other investment depending on instrument type). Beginning with the June 2000 quarter balance-of-payments (BOP) release, DI data reported have been obtained through the Quarterly International Investment Survey (QIIS). This survey has been developed to compile quarterly BOP financial account and International Investment Position (IIP) data in line with the recommendations of the 5th edition of the IMF's Balance-of-Payments Manual. The Statistics Act 1975 provides the legal backing of the survey. The QIIS survey covers approximately 500 enterprises each quarter, including all enterprises that are significant to the survey. There are two versions of the survey questionnaire; one addressed to non-financial enterprises, and the other to the financial sector. The statistical unit is the enterprise or the group top enterprise if it is able to consolidate reports from its subsidiary companies. Data from the quarterly sample (QIIS) is supplemented by an annual collection (as at 31 March each year); the Annual International Investment Survey (AIIS) is designed to collect position data from those relevant enterprises not included in the regular quarterly QIIS sample. In addition, information from the AIIS is used to update the quarterly sample of enterprises. DI transaction and position data are reported at market value, except that some survey respondents report positions at book values. Prior to the June 2000 quarter, much of the financial account and IIP data were collected via the Annual Capital Investment Survey, on the basis of the 4th edition of the BOP Manual. A threshold of 25 percent ownership in equity capital was applied to determine a DI relationship. Effective in the June 2000 quarter, a new data collection vehicle and a full BPM5 methodology was introduced for the financial account, IIP, and international investment income. A new quarterly sample survey (QIIS) replaced the old annual survey and a 10 percent threshold defining direct investment were the key features of the new methodology. In addition, in respect of inwards direct investment, the new methodology specified individual investor holdings of 10 percent or more as direct investment, compared with total investor holdings of 25 percent or more in the previous methodology. As a result of the changes, the direct investment series from fiscal (March) year 2001 is not directly comparable with the series up to fiscal (March) 2000. The series up to fiscal (March) year 2000 have not been revised to reflect the new methodology. Statistics with a country and regional breakdown on DI transactions and positions are published annually in August, for the reference period of fiscal year 31 March. The statistics are released in the Hot Off The Press Balance of Payments and International Investment Position Posting date: 19 September 2005

UNCTAD WID Country Profile: NEW ZEALAND Page 2 of 20 year ended March (www.stats.govt.nz). The country classification of DI transactions and position reflects the first foreign counterpart. For the periods up to fiscal (March) year 2000, DI transactions and position data by region have not been revised according to the new methodology (described above), and therefore, are not strictly comparable to the data from 2001. At present SNZ does not compile data on the activities of foreign affiliates in New Zealand, New Zealand's TNCs or their affiliates abroad, although some investigation work on FATS is now underway. While SNZ compiles data on total investment by industry (i.e. the total of direct, portfolio and other investment), such data are not compiled for DI. The compilation of total investment by industry data follows the Australian and New Zealand Standard Industrial Classification (ANZSIC) 1996, and classifies by the economic activity of the enterprise resident in New Zealand.

UNCTAD WID Country Profile: NEW ZEALAND Page 16 of 20 C. Legal framework for FDI 1. National policy framework Foreign direct investment in New Zealand is generally welcomed and encouraged. As of May 2001 the main features of the FDI regime include he following. Entry and establishment: Approval is required for all FDI (greenfield and acquisitions) involving more that 25 per cent foreign ownership or involving business or property worth more than NZD 10 million. Certain purchases of land are also subject to approval. Under the Overseas Investment Amendment Act (1995) the Overseas Investment Commission has the authority to approve the investments and to monitor them after approval to ensure they comply with the approval conditions. Ownership and control: Apart from the above ownership limitations applying to all FDI, there specific ownership limitations in a few industries, including fishing, telecommunications, airlines and opticians. Operational conditions: There are no performance requirements attached to foreign investment projects but maximising local content can be a consideration in government procurement contracts. Labelling of goods must not be misleading of origin. Foreign exchange controls: Capital inflows and repatriation are allowed freely subject to reporting requirements. Profits, royalties and fees and other investment related payments are freely transferable. Incentives: Incentives are available on a non-discriminatory basis for small businesses development. These incentives are channelled regionally through business development boards. Local authorities sometimes negotiate benefits and infrastructure commitments with privately run industrial parks for firms operating in them. Source: The Economist Intelligence Unit.
