Important Information

CANSTAR rating

Indicative CANSTAR rating*

* Managed funds that have not been available for a minimum of five years are not eligible to receive a Canstar star rating, therefore an indicative star rating is supplied. Indicative star ratings are represented as outlined stars, and provide an indication of the funds rating relative to its peers for the period for which it has been available.

Click here to view the Canstar KiwiSaver Star Ratings Methodology. The Star Ratings in this table were awarded in September 2021. The current features, rates and fees are displayed and may be different to what was rated. The Star Rating shown is only one factor to take into account when considering a product.

The initial table display is sorted by Star Rating and then alphabetically by company.

Any advice on this page is general and has not taken into account your objectives, financial situation or needs. Consider whether this general financial advice is right for your personal circumstances. You may need financial advice from a qualified adviser. Canstar is not providing a recommendation for your individual circumstances. See our Detailed Disclosure.

Data in the table is updated from time to time to reflect product changes notified to us by product issuers. Check current product details and investment options with the product issuer. Consider the Product Disclosure Statement before making a purchase decision.

The table above may not include all providers in the market and may not compare all features relevant to you. Canstar is not providing a recommendation for your individual circumstances.

The performance and fee information shown in the table is for the investment option used by Canstar in rating of the Kiwisaver product. Performance is after the annual fund charge, and before tax and membership fees. Performance for periods longer than one year is per annum and is for the period up until 31/03/2021. Performance information is sourced from the New Zealand Companies Office Disclose Register. Performance data may not be available for some products. This is indicated in the tables by a note referring the user to the product provider, or by no performance information being shown. Please note that all information about performance returns is historical. Past performance is not necessarily a guide to future performance; unit prices and fund values may fall as well as rise.

Canstar may earn a fee for referrals from its website tables, and from sponsorship (advertising) of certain products. Payment of sponsorship fees does not influence the star rating that Canstar awards to a sponsored product. Fees payable by product providers for referrals and sponsorship may vary between providers, website position, and revenue model. Sponsorship fees may be higher than referral fees. Sponsored products are clearly disclosed as such on website pages. They may appear in a number of areas of the website such as in comparison tables, on hub pages and in articles. Sponsored products may be displayed in a fixed position in a table, regardless of the product's rating, price or other attributes. The table position of a sponsored product does not indicate any ranking, rating or endorsement by Canstar. See How We Get Paid for further information.
