Funds Management and Other Investment Services in New Zealand - Industry Market Research Report
Funds Management and Other Investment Services in New Zealand
Funds management services are declining. Uncertainty after the COVID-19 pandemic is discouraging investors from using fund managers' products and services. The emergence of robo-advisory platforms is also reducing revenue for fund managers. Despite the pandemic, strong domestic sharemarket performance has bolstered both the value of managed funds and sharemarket activity. The increasing size of the KiwiSaver scheme and its significance to the financial system are providing an additional channel for funds and other investment management growth. However, funds management revenue is expected to decline 2.5% in 2023-24, dropping to an estimated $4.4 billion as economic activity continues to recover from significant volatility in the domestic and global financial markets as a result of COVID-19. A rise in the cash rate and volatility in residential housing markets is weighing on investor confidence and constraining funds management services' performance. COVID-19 and the subsequent financial market volatility also prompted some investors to transfer from growth funds to conservative funds. This constrained the level of funds under management (FUM). Overall, funds management and other investment services' revenue has dropped at an annualised 1.0% over the five years through 2023-24.
