Did you see the KiwiSaver changes announced with the Budget?
In a bid to boost Kiwis' retirement savings, and increase local investment, the Government is increasing the default KiwiSaver contribution rate, to 3.5% next year and then 4% by April 2028.
The current default rate is 3% but that will incrementally increase to 3.5% from April 1 next year, rising to 4% from April 2028. Employers will have to match the default rate.
