- The restricted license will help innovative firms enter the market under specific, gradually relaxing conditions.
- New Zealand earlier announced plans to ban crypto ATMs to curb money laundering.

New Zealand’s Financial Markets Authority (FMA) plans to
expand its FinTech sandbox to give more firms controlled access to the market.
The announcement comes as the regulator engages with industry participants at
the FinTech Hui in Wellington this week.
On-Ramp License Under Review
FMA Chief Executive Samantha Barrass said on Thursday that the regulator is
developing an “on-ramp” or restricted license that will help innovative firms
enter the market under defined conditions. “This new type of license will support firms to get access to
the market with some restrictions in place that can be removed as the firm
grows,” Barrass said.
She added that the approach aims to foster competition and
innovation while managing potential risks to consumers. The existing sandbox
pilot involved six firms, four of which have already identified a path to
market for their products.
The latest development signals a more flexible, potentially
faster route into the New Zealand market for brokers and trading platforms, but
with closer, earlier engagement from the FMA and a clear focus on user
protection.

One outcome of the pilot included the FMA’s decision that
Easy Crypto’s non-yielding stablecoin does not qualify as a financial product
under the Financial Markets Conduct Act. The program has helped the regulator
and participants understand how regulation interacts with emerging
technologies.

The FMA also published feedback from its 2025 tokenization
discussion paper. Respondents said tokenization could expand capital access and
improve liquidity in local markets. However, they also raised concerns about
cyber risks, asset custody, and fraud.
Barrass said the FMA will keep working with policymakers to
update legal and regulatory frameworks to reflect changes across global
markets. The sandbox expansion, she added, signals the regulator’s continuing
role in supporting responsible financial innovation.
Tokenisation Findings Published
The regulator has largely featured as an enforcement-heavy
regulator, from blacklisting offshore FX and crypto firms to cancelling the
licenses of New Zealand brokers that fell short on conduct or governance.
Against that backdrop, the sandbox expansion and on‑ramp
license concept show the FMA trying to move beyond being seen only as an
enforcer toward a more “grey‑zone” problem solver that gives firms a supervised pathway into the
market.
Coupled with is its work on tokenization and crypto‑asset
policy. Last year, New Zealand announced plans to shut down all cryptocurrencyATMs and cap international cash transfers at NZ$5,000 as part of a broader push
against money laundering and organized financial crime.

Paytiko CEO Razi Salih on Why Payment Orchestration is a MUST-HAVE for Brokers in 2026
At iFX Expo Dubai, Finance Magnates spoke with Razi Salih, CEO at Paytiko, about the evolution of the payments ecosystem and why payment orchestration has shifted from an option to a necessity for brokers, prop firms, and exchanges.
Mr. Salih explains how global expansion, the need for deep localisation, and the sheer number of new payment methods, from instant banking to stablecoins, are driving this critical infrastructure shift.

Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav sits down with Finance Magnates to discuss the core technology challenges facing CFD brokers and proprietary trading firms today.
Jadhav explains how the industry’s reliance on batch processing and fragmented systems (where CRMs, risk tools, and trading platforms operate with separate ‘sources of truth’) leads to delayed data and inconsistent operational decisions. He argues that real-time event processing is essential for managing fast-moving trading activity and risk.
Learn how Altima’s unified, event-driven architecture, connecting Altima CRM, Altima Prop, IB systems, and risk management through a single backbone, is designed to provide synchronous data and better operational coordination for modern brokerage and prop firm stacks.
Key Topics:
– Broker and Prop Firm Data Challenges
– The problem of delayed data processing (batch processing vs. real-time events)
– Fragmented systems and conflicting data sources
– Altima’s unified, event-driven solution architecture
– The concept of a “risk-aware CRM”
– Built-in risk management in Altima Prop#Altima #financemagnates #iFXDubai #FinTech #BrokerTech #PropFirm #CFDBroker #TradingTechnology #RealTimeData #RiskManagement #CRM #FinancialMarkets #EventDrivenArchitecture

How Prop Firms Scale Without Breaking Tech Stacks | Axcera Executive Interview
In this Finance Magnates executive interview, Dora Christofi, Head of Marketing at Finance Magnates, speaks with Herman Shaho, Co-Founder & CPO at Axcera, about what prop firms often get wrong when scaling, and how the right CRM infrastructure can support growth.
Shaho explains why many prop firms break once they grow beyond the early stage, after stacking too many disconnected tools. He also shares how Axcera approaches customisation, with technology that fits the firm’s needs rather than forcing the firm to fit a template.
“The firm doesn’t need to adapt to the software, our software adapts to the firm,” Shaho says.
The interview follows Axcera’s recognition at the Finance Magnates Awards 2025, where the company won Best Prop Trading Technology Provider.

In this Finance Magnates executive interview, Dora Christofi, Head of Marketing at Finance Magnates, speaks with Herman Shaho, Co-Founder & CPO at Axcera, about what prop firms often get wrong when scaling, and how the right CRM infrastructure can support growth.Shaho explains why many prop firms break once they grow beyond the early stage, after stacking too many disconnected tools. He also shares how Axcera approaches customisation, with technology that fits the firm’s needs rather than forcing the firm to fit a template.
“The firm doesn’t need to adapt to the software, our software adapts to the firm,” Shaho says.
