ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Has Kiwisaver become a bit of a political football? Or is it more a tug-of-war?

With the original author Labour on one side, and on the other, National's developments for the superannuation scheme, Pillar CEO Nathan Seiuli questions whether Kiwisaver will serve New Zealanders well in retirement. He joined Andrew Urquhart to weigh up the different policy implications for employees and employers, particularly asking if the responsibility to save for retirement is shifting in the right direction.
