3 hours ago | 25 views

The New Zealand Government plans to contribute $3.1 billion to the Superannuation Fund over the next four years, an increase of $2.2 billion due to updated population and inflation forecasts. The Guardians of New Zealand Superannuation have lowered their expected long-term returns from 7.8% to 7.2%, reflecting anticipated weaker global equity market performance. Contributions will continue until 2054, with superannuation costs projected to rise from $24.7 billion to $31.2 billion by 2029/30 as the population ages.
