What is KiwiSaver?
|
KiwiSaver is a Government savings initiative to help set you up for your retirement. Contributions are normally funnelled from an employee's pay via the IRD and on to a scheme provider, but contributions can also be paid directly.
The funds are locked in until the age of eligibility for New Zealand
Superannuation (currently age 65) or for five years, whichever is later.

Why you should invest in KiwiSaver
|
For most New Zealanders there will be a considerable gap between what they will want to spend in retirement, and what they will receive from the state pension. Whatever your desired retirement lifestyle, you'll almost certainly want to set aside money to fund this gap and have financial independence in retirement.
The greatest risk most savers face is that they spend their retirement savings before retirement. By locking in your savings, you help to ensure they will be there when you need them. |

Fidelity KiwiSaver Scheme
|
|
If you are going to join KiwiSaver, here's some great reasons why you should join the Fidelity KiwiSaver Scheme:
Kiwi owned and managed
Fidelity Life is New Zealand-owned and managed. We make the decisions right here in New Zealand and have over 35 years in the business of savings, investment and insurance.
Process
We don't have our own funds management company. That means
we're free to choose from a wide range of fund managers, here and overseas, that
we consider provide good returns at acceptable risk.
Performance
The best test of all is performance. You can check the latest Fidelity Life and Fidelity KiwiSaver Scheme investment returns
here.
