As the nonprofit, low-fee KiwiSaver provider, our mission is to provide a better choice for Kiwis. We’re about making members wealthier, not lining shareholder pockets.

As the nonprofit, low-fee KiwiSaver provider, our mission is to provide a better choice for Kiwis. We’re about making members wealthier, not lining shareholder pockets.

So we’ve just announced our 5th fee cut in 5 years. From 1 April, we’re lowering our total fund charge to 0.30% across our Conservative, Balanced and Growth KiwiSaver Funds and our diversified investment funds. Says Sam Stubbs, Simplicity MD: “Being a KiwiSaver manager involves huge economies of scale. Fee cuts in our industry should be frequent, but they aren’t.”

Simplicity believes in passing on the benefits of scale to our members – and we’re on track for further fee cuts in the future. Check out more details on our blog now!

Poll: Should we scrap daylight saving?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

This Sunday we'll be putting our clocks back for the end of daylight saving. Despite the benefits of an extra hour of sun during daylight saving, these clock changes commonly bring disruptions to our households and sleep - some feel that it should be scrapped altogether. What do you think?

Keep our drains clear

David from Khandallah

If you see leaves stacked over drains, you will do everyone a favour if you can clear them away to help water drain. If we all take notice and do a little it may save someone's place from being flooded.

If you see leaves stacked over drains, you will do everyone a favour if you can clear them away to help water drain. If we all take notice and do a little it may save someone's place from being flooded.
We cant expect the council to run around all the the time be looking out for every drain when it rains.

It's also a good time to clear your roof gutters and down pipes, these are source of water damage under or worse into your house when they spill over.

Good luck!
