The New Zealand Government is developing a consumer data rights ("CDR regime") through the Customer and Product Data Bill. Akahu strongly supports the CDR regime.
In our view, the Bill has been largely well designed. If the secondary regulation is also well designed, we expect that New Zealand’s CDR regime will get much faster customer adoption than similar regimes in the UK and Australia. Akahu intends to support that customer uptake by being a major user of the CDR regime.
