Podcasts about banking inquiry

ANZ's chief executive believes New Zealand's banking system is competitive.  The Commerce Commission's market study found there's little competition between the big four banks, and they take high profits by international standards.   It recommends open banking and giving Kiwibank access to more capital, to better compete and become a disruptor.  Antonia Watson told Mike Hosking they don't agree with the ComCom's characterisation of the sector.   She says their staff are fighting every day to win and retain customers, so back themselves that it's a competitive industry.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Big report day for big issues.  Report Number One: The ComCom and the business of banking.   The market doesn't work, more banks would help, how to get more banks? How to get less regulation, how to get better deals for the customer?  Firstly, don't hold your breath. The ComCom has looked into power and petrol and banking – not a lot changes.  Nicola Willis didn't help yesterday morning when she said in response to a perfectly legitimate question about lending practices, that a bank CEO had said they “weight farms differently from houses in terms of risk”, Willis said well they can tell that to the select committee. Which as far as I could work out means nothing, given I'm sure they will.  Then when asked about the banking lobby being powerful, she said “they may be powerful but democracy is more powerful”. Once again, it means nothing. What she was avoiding was the question ‘will you legislate', and she was avoiding that because she is not legislating.  The same way the previous government made a lot of noise about supermarkets and petrol but were never going to legislate either. Instead, what we got was a sign on the footpath showing the 98 price and a Grocery Commissioner who so far is limited to press releases.  Here is your trouble: we have a lot of banks, we just don't use them. We can switch banks, we chose not to.  Yes, the rules the Reserve Bank has in place to make banks hold money could be changed, some of the regulation could be changed, but will it materially fix the market? No.  This, as I always say, is not to defend banks. Banks are highly profitable. Their margins are higher here than Australia.  But the mistake that is made almost every time, whether its banks, supermarkets, petrol stations, or telcos, is the hype never plays out in reality.  The jawboning gets the headlines, the action fades into obscurity.  Let's talk in a year, and you can show me how fundamentally different the New Zealand banking scene is. Or not.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There's a belief the Government could make part of Kiwibank public-owned.   The Commerce Commission's market study shows there's little competition between the big four banks, and they take high profits by international standards.   It recommends giving Kiwibank access to more capital to better compete and become a disruptor.  Massey University's banking expert David Tripe told Ryan Bridge that money could come from the New Zealand public.   He says it would take some time to absorb a large amount of capital, so it's better done as a relatively slow process.  Tripe says trying to grow a bank rapidly is usually a recipe for disaster.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Federated Farmers dairy chair Richard McIntyre says the emotional toll of increased pressure on farmers from their banks is worrying and he's urging parliamentarians to launch an inquiry into the rural banking sector. 

The coalition government's select committee banking inquiry could look at how to encourage banks to lend more to "productive" sectors of the economy rather than having such a big focus on "unproductive" housing lending, Commerce and Consumer Affairs Minister Andrew Bayly says.The National-NZ First coalition agreement says the government will establish a select committee inquiry into banking competition "with broad and deep criteria to focus on competitiveness, customer services, and profitability."Speaking in interest.co.nz's Of Interest podcast, Bayly said the government will wait to see what the Commerce Commission has to say in its market study into personal banking services before launching the select committee probe. The Commission's draft report is due on March 21."Why have we seen outflows from the productive sector like small businesses, farming and property development which is really important if you want to build houses in New Zealand? We've seen funding going out of that sector, going into what I would term the unproductive sector which is the mortgage market. That's interesting because it obviously has a big impact on businesses and the productive sector," said Bayly."Then there are things around margin [and] capital adequacy ratios that the Reserve Bank manages. That will help banks determine where they put their money, and whether they want to invest in more mortgages, or whether they want to invest in supporting businesses.""I'm approaching it with an open mind. I want to see where they [the Commerce Commission] have got to with retail [banking], but I think inevitably there's some other areas we want to cover," said Bayly.Under bank regulatory capital rules overseen by the Reserve Bank, banks are required to hold less capital against housing lending than against other types of lending such as business/corporate and agriculture lending. The major lending exposure of all NZ's major banks is housing. ANZ NZ, the country's biggest bank, has 72% of its total lending in housing.Bayly is also Minister of Statistics, plus Small Business and Manufacturing Minister.On Statistics NZ, Bayly said it will deliver the 7.5% annual spending reduction the government has asked for. Decisions and preparation are ahead for the 2028 census, he said, noting the 2023 census cost $326 million, "a lot of money.""I'm wanting to make sure that what we do drives economic growth for New Zealand, how we can power up those businesses. That's the big strategic intent," he said."Do you run another huge census every five years? That's the first question. And if you read the Stats NZ] briefing [to the incoming minister] there's a proposal that you don't run those big things again. Because governments all around the world are having the same issue where if you front up to someone now and say 'can you fill out this long form' most of them tell you to naf off," Bayly said.The next census could look to make more use of administrative data like home addresses or tax returns, he said, information and data that lies within various government entities."Obviously they've got to do it within privacy settings. But that is certainly the trend overseas and we will have to look at it.. that you may move towards more localised, small surveys, targeted surveys, and look to buttress that information using existing data sources that are potentially untapped at the moment."In the podcast Bayly also talks about Stats NZ reporting Consumers Price Index (CPI) data monthly, funding to update the CPI that's overdue, the Credit Contracts and Consumer Finance Act, the conduct of financial institutions (CoFI) regime, buy now, pay later, anti-money laundering rules, and his plans to rewrite the Companies Act.*You can find all episodes of the Of Interest podcast here.

The National Party wants a banking inquiry...,or do they? Seems that the "party of business" wanting to now reign in business are moving to the left...or are they?

Sandra Hurley knows what it's all about covering politics in a pandemic. A mathematics whizz kid - her career has taken her from the corporate world of investment banking to the newsroom. You'll likely best know her as the face of RTE's political news coverage bringing us the latest news and developments from Government Buildings. She's reported everywhere from the streets of New York to the Papal conclave in Rome and the London bombings of 2007 and has covered some of the biggest national stories from the Banking Inquiry to the vindication of Garda Whistleblower, Maurice McCabe and the Charleton Tribunal. In this episode we discuss: why she swapped mathematics for the newsroom; how the public perception of politics has changed; and she tells me about the story she covered during her time in New York that would later be recounted on television in the popular legal drama “The Good Wife”. She also offers plenty of advice for young aspiring journalists. I hope you enjoy the episode.

National's calling for an inquiry to make sure that vulnerable people haven't been left behind when it comes to banking.Shadow Treasurer Andrew Bayly says losing cheque facilities, and not to being able to visit branches, is causing distress to many Kiwis.This comes after several mayors signed a letter to the government to intervene on rural bank closures.The loss of bank branches and the phasing out of cheques is causing concern to some sectors of the community.Opotiki is one of a number of towns that are seeing banks shut up shop. Mayor Lyn Riesterer told Kate Hawkesby that only about 50-60 percent of people in Opotiki have internet access."If people in certain rural areas want to do internet banking, that's not going to happen."She says that phone banking is also a problem, particularly for elderly people dealing with that "non-service". LISTEN ABOVE

This episode is a discussion of centralisation and decentralisation in Ireland. Over the past 40 years in Ireland, there has been a steady decline in the power and authority given to local authorities and greater emphasis on centralised authority based in the Cabinet. At the same time, the famous decentralisation strategy of the early 2000s was supposed to create more equity between the regions. Ben and Jack discuss this in detail and do a quick overview of the recent report of the Banking Inquiry report and indulge in a little 2016 election results speculation. One thing to note is the audio for this episode requires everyone to turn up the volume, we apologise for any inconvenience caused! We have fixed this issue for future episodes. Corrections: The Irish Financial Regulator during the Celtic Tiger was Patrick Neary not Patrick Nevin as mentioned in the podcast. Apologies to any persons named Patrick Nevin.
