    Yes, there are regulations in place for cryptocurrency brokers in New Zealand. The Financial Markets Authority (FMA) is the regulatory body responsible for overseeing the cryptocurrency industry. Brokers are required to comply with the Anti-Money Laundering and Countering Financing of Terrorism Act (AML/CFT Act) and obtain a license from the FMA. This ensures that brokers follow strict guidelines to prevent money laundering and terrorist financing.

The FMA closely monitors the activities of brokers and enforces compliance with the AML/CFT Act. This helps to maintain the integrity of the cryptocurrency market and protect investors from fraudulent activities.
