Financial Asset Investing in New Zealand industry analysis

The Financial Asset Investing industry's revenue is largely dictated by the performance of domestic and international financial markets. Volatility in global financial markets due to the pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine conflict has contributed to a decline in confidence. Industry revenue is expected to fall at an annualised 3.2% over the five years through 2023-24, to total $31.1 billion. This trend includes an anticipated uptick of 0.1% in the current year.

Trends and Insights

  • Governments have raised interest rates to combat inflation, making bonds increasingly attractive to investors. This has led to growth in investment in long-term debt securities as they become more lucrative compared to other investment options.
  • The corporations market has grown extensively. Retail investors have fallen as a share of industry assets due to stronger growth in the corporations market.
  • Auckland is home to most financial asset investment companies. Over 40% of financial asset investors are located in Auckland due to its significance as New Zealand's financial hub.
  • Low start-up capital requirements make it easier for entrants. The industry's low capital requirements make it fairly simple for any individual or company to set up an enterprise.
