Summer 2026 Edition
Welcome to our first edition of 2026 – I hope you’ve had an enjoyable summer so far. If you’ve been impacted by the recent severe weather, I hope you and your family have been able to stay safe and well.
In this edition, we share our latest investment update from the December quarter. Despite a volatile few months, global equities ended the year higher, supported by easing inflation and central banks taking a softer stance. We also look at what unfolded closer to home, with the RBNZ signalling an end to its easing cycle as economic conditions stabilise.
The start of a new year is a great time to revisit your long-term aspirations – from legacy planning for your family and business, to investment options for your capital. Whether you’re thinking about the future or planning conversations over summer, our expert insights may be useful.
You’ll find our 2026 Market Outlook commentary, offering our investment specialists’ insights on the trends shaping global markets as 2026 gets underway.
Wishing you and your family a safe, relaxing summer, and all the best for the year ahead.

General Manager, ANZ Private
