Media reports portrayed the bank as a "saviour" and a "white knight," turning a blow for its shareholders into a public relations coup.
The maximum extent of its loss will be $4.3 million as the NZX is chipping in its $460,000 fidelity fund.
The bank said it had no legal obligation to recompense Access' out-of-pocket clients, but accepted there was a perception they had funds in their own names in a BNZ account.
The report of the receiver, Ferrier Hodgson, showed family trusts associated with director Bill Garlick owe Access $638,000.
Garlick last week denied he had borrowed money from the brokerage to fund the purchase in February of a 20% shareholding from former director Murray Bolton.
