Can I invest while living overseas?

You can open an Investment Fund if you’re based in New Zealand, or if you’re a New Zealand citizen living overseas.

To apply, you’ll need valid NZ ID, a current home address, which doesn’t need to be a New Zealand address, and a New Zealand bank account.

Please complete the application here. You’ll need to provide your details and any overseas tax details if you’re a tax resident of any other country.
