New Zealand Exchange Limited (NZX) has established four industry advisory boards - NZX Asset Management Advisory Board, NZX Debt Advisory Board, NZX Futures & Options Advisory Board, and NZX Business Advisory Board.

The Boards are designed to build a community of advisors throughout the market which will aid in generating, testing, and refining new ideas. They will also enhance communication between NZX, key stakeholder groups such as Government, and important market participants.

Each board contains senior industry experts appointed by the NZX Board of Directors to serve a 3 year term. They also contain an NZX director and a member of the NZX management team.

Anthony Quirk from Guardian Trust Funds Management will chair the NZX Asset Management Advisory Board. "This is very positive initiative from the exchange and we're looking forward to working with them on issues of mutual interest.
