KiwiSaver Changes and Economic Uncertainty: Why Now is the Time to Secure Your Financial Future

Published on Mon May 19 2025 in Money

As discussions around changes to KiwiSaver heat up in Wellington, many Kiwis are understandably questioning what the future holds for their retirement savings. Coupled with fluctuating interest rates, rising living costs, and a constantly shifting economic landscape, it’s becoming more important than ever to take personal control of your long-term financial security.

One area that often gets overlooked in financial planning is funeral insurance. While many people put emphasis on saving for a comfortable retirement, few plan for the expenses that can arise unexpectedly—especially at the end of life.

At Momentum Life, we believe peace of mind should be part of your financial future. That’s why we offer Funeral Insurance that’s simple to get and easy to understand. No medicals. No paperwork. Just straightforward cover you can rely on, with guaranteed acceptance for all New Zealanders aged 40 to 75. What’s more, you can buy funeral insurance online. 

Why Now?

If KiwiSaver rules are tightened or returns are affected, some people may find themselves with less flexibility or fewer funds than expected. Adding a small, fixed funeral cover can ease the burden on loved ones—and ensure that your legacy doesn’t come with a financial cost.

Now is the time to take stock of your finances and prepare for all stages of life. Momentum Life is here to support you with smart, affordable cover that fits your future.
