Instead of giving individual gifts to residents, the idea was to redirect those funds to support struggling New Zealand families having to cut back on essentials.
Ryman residents were overwhelmingly in support of the idea, with many volunteering to help choose the gifts to fill over 1000 shoeboxes with thoughtful items.

✅ Boosting Kiwibank's capital: Up to $500 million may be raised from KiwiSaver funds, NZ investment institutions, and professional investor groups to help Kiwibank compete with the "big four" Australian-owned banks.
✅ Exploring a public share offering: A potential IPO for Kiwibank is on the horizon (post-2028) after its digital transformation, offering more accessible growth options.
✅ Revised Reserve Bank focus: New directives for the Reserve Bank prioritize competition while maintaining financial stability, with reviews planned for:
❇️Risk weighting for lending.
❇️Minimum capital thresholds for new market entrants.
❇️Restrictions on the use of the word "bank."
❇️Barriers to lending on Māori freehold land.
✅ Improved services for consumers: Emphasis on open banking, better payment switching, and clearer home loan comparisons.
"Competition is king," as Nicola Willis puts it. These changes aim to create a level playing field for smaller players and better outcomes for Kiwi bank customers. What do you think?
