Episode Synopsis

New research published by the FMA's economics team this week shows that while many New Zealanders feel confident in their financial decisions, there are significant gaps between their financial goals and actual holdings of investment products.    Good Cents: Kiwis on Savings and Debt looks into New Zealanders' attitudes and behaviours towards savings, debt reduction, and financial guidance. FMA Head of Economics and Research Gael Price speaks about the research, which found there is room for financial providers to help New Zealanders better align investment choices with financial goals, help them better understand debt management, and increase their comfort with seeking financial information.
