The NZ Advisory Research Problem
Financial advisers in New Zealand face a data gap: international tools are expensive, NZX-specific data is fragmented, and general AI tools are not built for adviser work.
Research tools cost more than they should
Global research platforms charge thousands per year. For NZ-specific data on a market this size, the ROI may not stack up for most advisory practices.
Client questions take hours, not minutes
"Is Auckland Airport's dividend safe?" requires pulling annual reports, checking payout ratios, earnings cover, cash flow -- scattered across PDFs and NZX filings. Then writing it up for the client file.
SoA documentation needs data backing
Statements of Advice need supporting evidence for NZX recommendations. Copy-pasting from broker research may not satisfy your compliance officer.
General AI tools are not built for adviser work
General-purpose AI tools can phrase an answer as a recommendation, and often cite nothing. The Copilot is written to report data with its sources and to avoid buy, sell or hold language.
Compliance burden grows every year
FMA expectations around research documentation, suitability evidence, and adviser conduct continue to increase. Manual processes that worked in 2020 may not meet current standards.
What Advisers Use NZXplorer For
Every feature provides data for informational purposes. NZXplorer does not provide financial advice -- advisers apply their own professional judgment when using this data with clients.

Is Spark's dividend sustainable for my client who needs income?
Based on available data, Spark New Zealand (SPK) paid 16.0 cents per share of ordinary dividends with an ex-date in the 12 months to 24 October 2026 (8.0c interim, 8.0c final). On the 23 October 2026 close of $1.88, that is a trailing yield of 8.51%. Points for consideration from Spark's FY26 result:
- The FY26 dividend was 100% of free cash flow ($308 million, up 18.5%), in line with Spark's guidance
- FY27 guidance: free cash flow of $300-350 million, a payout of 90-100% of free cash flow, and a target dividend of 16-18 cents per share
- The FY26 dividend was 50% imputed, which affects the after-tax income for NZ-resident investors
