Version 2 of a discussion paper “Economy on the Edge: Swan Dive or Belly Flop?” written by authors David Skilling, CEO of the New Zealand Institute and Mark Weldon, CEO of NZX was released on Tuesday (4th November).
It's a brilliant document and a great example of how the business community can provide great policy ideas. I hope the next government takes the output of this effort seriously.
One item of note is the proposal to transition KiwiSaver to a compulsory scheme over the next few years. Personally I'm not in favour as this contradicts my 'independent' ethos. But, good for New Zealand? Perhaps.
At any rate, my money is on KiwiSaver becoming compulsory by 2015.

"brilliant - a great idea – making KiwiSaver accessible and understandable to the average person who feel they should really understand what KiwiSaver is all about – i.e. like me!!"
"..the concept maps – I love them."
"A site like this is definately needed. It's (KiwiSaver) still confusing to the newbie."
"Nice site – there’s some great info on here."
"The overviews are great and the concept maps are a good way of getting a lot of information clearly explained."
