Keeping managed investment scheme details up to date

The manager is responsible for updating scheme and participant information

Each year a scheme's annual report and financial statements must be provided to us, and we will email you when these are due.

The scheme may also have other compliance obligations — if you are unsure what these are, check with your professional advisor or the Financial Markets Authority website.

Who can update scheme details

To update scheme details you must:

  • have a RealMe® login
  • be a registered user of your organisation's online account
  • have authority to act on behalf of the scheme manager.

Update scheme details

To update scheme details, log in to your organisation's online account and follow these steps.

  1. Under the Organisation portfolio section on the right side of your screen, search for and select the scheme you want to update.
  2. In the page containing the scheme details, open the ‘I want to…’ drop-down menu and select ‘Maintain scheme’.
  3. Make the required changes to your scheme. You can, for example:
    • change the name of your scheme
    • upload new documents and archive existing ones
    • correct data entry errors
    • add or remove participants.
  4. Review the updated details of your scheme, then tick the declaration and select Submit.

Any changes you make will be applied as soon as you submit your updated details, with the exception of new documents. If you add any new documents as part of your update, they must first be accepted by us.

We aim to process all updates the day they are submitted however this might not always be possible and may take up to 5 working days.

Once your documents have been accepted we will email you confirmation, they will be publicly available on the Disclose Register and we will advise the Financial Markets Authority (FMA).

Updating participant details

Changes to participant details, such as a name or address for service, must be made to the participant record on either:

  • a Companies Office register, where the participant is a company, credit union, etc, or
  • the Disclose Other Participants directory, where the participant is an overseas issuer, individual, board of trustees, etc.
