1. Information only — not financial advice
KiwiRates (kiwirates.co.nz) provides general financial information for educational and informational purposes only. Nothing on this site constitutes financial advice, investment advice, or a recommendation to buy, sell, or switch any financial product. KiwiRates is not a Financial Advice Provider (FAP) and is not registered or licensed under the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013 or the Financial Services Legislation Amendment Act 2019.
2. No personalised advice
The information on this site does not take into account your personal financial situation, goals, or risk tolerance. Before making any financial decision — including choosing a KiwiSaver fund or mortgage product — you should seek advice from a licensed financial adviser.
3. Data accuracy
KiwiSaver return and fee data is sourced from the Disclose Register (Companies Office) and is updated quarterly. Mortgage rate data is sourced from ratesapi.nz and updated regularly. While we take care to ensure accuracy, KiwiRates makes no warranty — express or implied — that the information is complete, current, or error-free. Always verify data directly with the relevant provider.
4. Past performance
Past investment returns shown on this site are historical only. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future returns. Investment values can go up and down.
5. Calculator results
Calculator outputs are estimates only, based on the assumptions and inputs provided. They do not account for tax (KiwiSaver funds are generally taxed as Portfolio Investment Entities — PIEs), fee changes, market volatility, or changes in your personal circumstances. Results should not be relied upon for financial decision-making without professional advice.
6. Independence
KiwiRates is independently operated and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any KiwiSaver provider, bank, financial institution, or government agency. We do not receive commissions or payments from providers whose products appear on this site.
