How New Zealand’s top iwi have grown assets to $8.2b

New figures have revealed the assets of our ten biggest iwi stands at $8.2 billion.

A recent report from consultancy firm TDB Advisory shows the assets only rose by $100m in the last three years, a slightly better return than 2023 – as the economic turmoil over the last five years continues to have an impact on their investments.

Covering everything from property, to farming, to managed funds and offshore opportunities, many of these iwi own assets that have an impact on our day-to-day lives, so how do they compare to some of our biggest investment firms?

To explain where iwis have their money, today on The Front Page, TDB Advisory director Phil Barry is with us to dive into this report.
