Projections are illustrative only, based on 3.5% p.a. (Default Balanced Fund) and 6.0% p.a. (Growth Strategy), net of fees and tax. Past performance does not guarantee future results. FMA-prescribed rates are 3.5% (Balanced) and 4.5% (Growth)

Are you accidentally donating $100,000 of your retirement to the bank?

This usually isn’t because of a single bad decision, but rather the “hidden leak” of low returns and missed opportunities. 

Even a seemingly small 1% difference in annual returns can easily snowball into a loss of six figures.

$103,000

That's what the average default fund costs a Kiwi at retirement.

Default funds are built for the bank's stability, not your wealth. That gap compounds silently for 30 years.

A fund that worked at 25 is quietly losing you money at 45

Your risk profile changes as you age. Staying on autopilot while the market moves without you costs more each year.

If your returns don't beat 3% inflation, your "growth" is actually a loss

We pick funds built to outrun inflation, not just keep pace with it.

*How we calculate this – Based on a 2.5% p.a. return difference over 30 years for an average earner.

There's no fee. Here's why.

Fund providers pay us, so you pay exactly the same as going direct. Not a cent more.

The difference? You get an expert coach, a hand-picked fund, and annual reviews. Going direct gets you a welcome email and a generic fund.

400+ Kiwis have switched to better funds. Ready to see yours?

Most Kiwis get put in a default fund and never hear from anyone again. We do it differently.
