What you NEED to know about ‘The Bequest Report’

The Team from Momentum Waikato

The ‘western world’ is on the cusp of what will be the largest inter-generational transfer of wealth in history, as the ‘baby boomer’ generation reach the end of their lifetimes.

In recent years there has been growing awareness of this looming challenge and opportunity across investment, charity and philanthropy circles in New Zealand, but little local data and analysis to really inform planning and consciousness raising here.

Now the Philanthropic Services division of JBWere New Zealand, one of Momentum Waikato’s investment partners, have launched ‘The Bequest Report – Reshaping Aotearoa New Zealand by creating a legacy that goes beyond asset wealth’ to collate and present the relevant facts and insights.

Poll: Are you a Te Huia fan?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

All three Hamilton MPs appear to be united behind the retention of the Te Huia passenger rail service between Hamilton and Auckland, as well as potentially expanding it to Tauranga.

But whether Hamilton East’s Ryan Hamilton, Hamilton West’s Tama Potaka and soon-to-be Labour list MP Georgie Dansey have the combined power to shunt transport minister Chris Bishop and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon onto their line of thinking remains to be seen.
