Nick Kynoch’s career has been focused on the regulation of financial services. He has experienced regulation from all perspectives, advising regulated clients as partner whilst in private practice, as in-house counsel within a regulated institution, and as a regulator. Through that period, he has seen the introduction and implementation of new regulatory regimes, the move towards conduct regulation and the ever-increasing focus on putting customer interests first.
At Generate, he is responsible for the oversight of the legal, compliance and risk teams, and brings to bear all of his experience to ensure that the company offers the best products and services it can for Generate’s members and network of advisers.
Outside of work, Nick and his wife are raising two energetic young boys. Having returned to New Zealand from a long stint in London, their family enjoys exploring their own backyard.
