Description
KiwiSaver holds $145 billion so why are so many Kiwis still heading for a broken retirement?
In this episode, we’re joined by Dean Anderson, Founder and CEO of Kernel, to unpack what’s holding KiwiSaver back - from weak incentives and disengaged members to election-year policy risks, default fund underperformance, gaps for the self-employed, and why short-term political decisions could cost New Zealand decades of future wealth.
