Nicola Willis urged to enhance KiwiSaver contributions in New Zealand

Finance Minister Nicola Willis is considering increasing contributions to KiwiSaver from both employees and employers.

The Treasury warns that rising health costs and an aging population are straining public finances. These developments highlight the need for a review of New Zealand's retirement savings system to ensure financial security for the future.
