Why should you switch out of your default KiwiSaver fund now? Well basically put... it is unlikely to be the best fund for your needs. At the time of writing there was just ONE DAY left before all KiwiSaver members who have never made an active KiwiSaver fund choice will be moved into a new default KiwSaver fund. So what are you waiting for? Why gamble with your financial future? The right KiwiSaver fund would mean a better retirement and a quicker way to save your house deposit!
You can find out everything about what fund is right for you through our FREE to use partners at National Capital. They can advise and help you go about picking the right fund and if needed move you from your default provider - all for no cost.
There's an old proverb about planting trees and the same principle applies to saving for your retirement. The best day to plant a tree is today, much like the best day to start saving is right now.
If you already are saving and one of the 3 million Kiwis with a KiwiSaver plan then that is awesome, but it is also a GREAT time to have someone review your fund to ensure that you are on the best plan for your needs. The Government has recently reviewed their default fund providers (KiwiSaver Default Providers Slashed) and set a prime example why you should also look to review your fund. KiwiSaver is not quite as ‘set and forget’ as you think. You should regularly look at how your fund is performing and if you are one of the 381,000 Kiwis who joined and just fell in to a default fund then you really need to have someone look at your plan!
