This week, Dan Brunskill (Markets Reporter at BusinessDesk) sits down with NZX Limited's CEO Mark Peterson to chat about everything you need to know about the New Zealand stock exchange: how does it work? what do investors need to know? And why is it a private company rather than a government run entity? All that and more is answered.

Shared Lunch is a conversation with experts, CEOs, and you. Each week we alternate between an interview with a company leader and an industry deep dive. Episodes are hosted by BusinessDesk journalists including Frances Cook, Rebecca Stevenson, and Victoria Young.
