© Guardians of New Zealand Superannuation
New Zealand’s population is getting older and in the future there will be fewer working-age people paying taxes to support those being paid the pension. The NZ Super Fund is a global investment fund that is designed to save money now to help pay for future pension costs, starting in the 2030s. The Fund is designed to keep growing for many decades.
We are the kaitiaki, or Guardians of New Zealand Superannuation. Our purpose is kia toitū te haumi hei hua mā ngā tangata katoa o Aotearoa, sustainable investment delivering strong returns for all New Zealanders.
Our commitment to sustainable investment, best practice portfolio management and strong corporate governance helps ensure our nation continues to prosper as a place we’ll all enjoy retiring in.
Being on our team means being part of a globally recognised and progressive organisation.
We are globally minded. While New Zealand is our home and we are a significant player in our local capital markets, our total portfolio approach ensures we look for the best investment opportunities from around the world.
We have been named the world's top performing sovereign wealth fund based on ten-year returns. Over its first 20 years, the Fund beat its performance benchmarks and returned 9.5% p.a. after costs, before New Zealand tax.
Environmental, social and governance considerations are factored into our investment decisions and process, alongside strong commercial returns.
The Fund is not expected to peak in size as a percentage of GDP until the 2070s.This makes us one of a very few genuine long-term investors globally.
