How does your fund choice affect your returns?

The OneAnswer KiwiSaver Scheme has a choice of 14 different funds, so you can choose how your savings are invested.

It’s important to note the fund you’re invested in can make a big difference to the amount you have when you retire (or when you withdraw your savings to buy your first home).

How are our funds different?

Each of our funds invest in one or more investment 'assets' (e.g. shares, property, fixed interest and cash). Each type of asset has different levels of risk and return.

Growth assets are likely to experience larger movements in value compared to income assets. However, they’re also expected to achieve higher returns over the long term.

Growth assets

  • Listed property
  • Equities (e.g. shares)

If you’re seeking higher long-term returns, you need to be willing to accept more risk, for example by investing in a fund with more growth assets.

Income assets

  • Cash and cash equivalents
  • Fixed interest (e.g. bonds)

If you’re seeking lower risk, you need to be willing to accept lower long-term returns, for example by investing in a fund with more income assets.

Choosing a fund

You can choose a fund by selecting from one of two options:

Selecting from our 14 funds yourself

This is an option if you'll review your fund choice on a regular basis or if you’re looking to buy your first home in the future. For example, you may want a lower-risk fund to get more certainty about the amount available to withdraw. You can choose one fund or a mix of funds.

Selecting our Lifetimes option

With our Lifetimes option, we move your savings through our funds based on your age (excluding High Growth Fund).
