The data: coverage, periodicity and timeliness
Coverage characteristics
Since June 2013, we have conducted a monthly survey of registered banks' financial performance.
View the list of registered banks
Data from 1 July 2013 in this table is sourced from the Registered Bank Income Statement Survey (ISS).
The survey was updated in July 2018 to collect information that could be used to calculate selected monthly yields. This also enabled the provision of a more detailed breakdown of interest earned on loans and advances in these quarterly tables. Please note there are minor variances between the discontinued ‘Housing loans’ and ‘Other loans’ series and the ‘Total loans’ series, as a result of data quality improvements following the introduction of the updated survey.
Earlier data (to provide a historical context) has been sourced from registered banks' Disclosure Statements and the Net Interest Margin Survey.
We calculate the income data presented in the tables by aggregating the consolidated information for registered banks.
Volatility
As the data are quarterly income and expense flows, they will tend to be more volatile than balance sheet data. Movements in interest rates, exchange rates and the number of days in a quarter will all have an influence on the flows along with one-off income or expense items that occur in a single quarter.
Periodicity
Quarterly.
Timeliness
We release data approximately two months after the reference quarter.
Access by the public
Statistics release calendar
The statistics release calendar provides a long-term plan of scheduled releases. We update and release it on the first working day of the month.

Integrity
Dissemination of terms and conditions under which official statistics are produced, including confidentiality of individual responses
We provide this information as a service to the public in a format that preserves the confidentiality of transactions. Our function and operations are governed by the Reserve Bank of New Zealand Act 1989.
We publish aggregated data. Individual institutional data is confidential.

Provision of information about revisions and advance notice of major changes in methodology
Provisional data are italicised. We deem data as provisional when a series is under review. New data, or revised data, are in bold font. This applies to the summary table only and not Excel files. We generally publish revisions when we are next due to update and release the table. Should we need to make revisions more promptly, we will post a special note.
We will post any major changes in methodology as a special note.
Quality
Dissemination of documentation on methodology and sources used in preparing statistics
The survey template and definitions are available.
Comparability over time
We sourced the most recent data from the ISS, which was introduced in July 2013. Improvements to the ISS return were made in 2018 to enable the publishing of selected monthly yield data. These improvements have also resulted in improvements to the S21 table from September 2018.
To provide a historical context data from other sources has been used. This includes the Net Interest Margin Survey and publicly available Disclosure Statements. The information available from these other sources is not as detailed as that provided by the ISS.
While all the data is based on generally accepted accounting standards (GAAP), these have changed over time, particularly over 2005–07 when New Zealand moved to the international standards. A fuller explanation of that changeover is provided below. Consequently some of the data may not be fully comparable.
Changes to accounting standards
A new version of NZ IFRS 9 became effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. Banks have been adopting the standard during 2018 at the start of their new financial years.
Between 1 January 2005 and 1 July 2007, banks in New Zealand changed accounting standards from New Zealand accounting standards (NZ GAAP) to New Zealand International Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS). The move to NZ IFRS affects both balance sheet and income data from banks’ disclosure statements.
Between 2005 and 2007 data is a combination of data reported under the two sets of accounting standards. For the 31 December 2005 quarter, 92% of the total assets of registered banks reported were held by banks using NZ IFRS.
Dates from which banks adopted NZ IFRS are:
