What actually matters for your money in 2026 - WEBINAR REPLAY
About this episode
Time to talk about what will actually move the needle for you in 2026, and help you feel more confident with your money.
Whether it’s property, investing, KiwiSaver, or just feeling calmer about the decisions you’re making, we’re covering the things you actually need to know.
We’ll be talking about what an election year really means for your money, how to think about the economy as it starts to turn, where people accidentally trip up during this phase, and how to set yourself up so your money feels easier, not harder, in 2026
Frances Cook brings in her favourite experts to tackle the different areas of your money that you should know more about:
realestate.co.nz's Vanessa Williams, to answer your burning questions about the property market
TVNZ business reporter Jason Walls, for the big picture on the economy and political forces in play this year
EnableMe head strategic coach Katie Wesney, for the investing and KiwiSaver insights you need to know
