KiwiSaver is changing – but who’s going to pay for it?

from Money Talks · host NZ Herald

New Zealand’s major political parties appear to be moving closer together on KiwiSaver – but there are some significant differences in how far they’re willing to go. Liam Dann and Tamsyn Parker look at plans to increase employer contributions, whether compulsory saving is the answer to New Zealand’s retirement shortfall, and why businesses may ultimately carry much of the cost. Plus, rising US interest rates and bond yields could have consequences for Kiwi mortgages and KiwiSaver balances, while new GDP figures may offer some hope that New Zealand’s fragile economic recovery is finally gaining momentum.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
