Query FMA warnings/alerts and licensed provider pages for NZ crowdfunding, peer-to-peer lending, and financial-advice sources. Search alerts, list/register providers by type, and return source-backed JSON payloads for machine-readable workflows.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# FMA NZ

## Goal

Provide practical, safe access to New Zealand Financial Markets Authority public information for:

- warnings-and-alerts listing and details
- licensed provider discovery for crowdfunding and peer-to-peer lending
- pointers to the Financial Advice Provider licensing ecosystem and the Financial Service Providers Register

## Use this when

- A user asks for recent FMA warnings and alerts about scams, impersonation, or unregistered providers
- A task needs licensed provider lookup by name/type across FMA public pages
- A workflow needs source URLs and machine-readable metadata for NZ fintech consumer protection checks

## Do not use this for

- Circumventing login walls, bot challenges, or any private/credentialed APIs
- Storing or persisting any scraped payloads
- Treating summary-only outputs as legal or compliance advice

## CLI

Run with:

```bash
python3 skills/fma-nz/scripts/cli.py <command>
```

## Commands

- `warnings list [--query TEXT] [--since YYYY|YYYY-MM-DD] [--until YYYY|YYYY-MM-DD] [--limit N] [--json]` - search/paginate FMA warnings/alerts by text and date window

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add thecolab-ai/.skills/fma-nz@sha256:9a00ea93780e8b09

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260719.1748a98, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
