The accounting structure is described in the GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) on the New Zealand Treasury website. The annual report has to include a balance sheet, a profit and loss account and a cash flow statement. - Publication requirements
- The "Financial Reporting Act" of 1993 forces any organization to produce an annual report of the financial flows within the 5 months preceding the end of the accounting year, before disclosure to the "Registrar of Companies" for agreement. Only companies quoted in the stock exchange have to publish their accounts. According to the law of transferable securities and the law of exchange, registrants must file to the Ministry of Finance the annual and biannual statement reports, as well as a copy in the foreign exchange markets where transferable securities are registered.
