Andy Foster
Andy Foster is a New Zealand politician and member of the NZ First party, known for his advocacy on financial issues. His recent proposal to amend the Financial Markets (Conduct of Institutions) Amendment Act 2022 has drawn attention as it seeks to restrict banks from denying services based on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria, a move criticized by some as a challenge to banking autonomy.
