A local study says Kiwi expats might be the key to addressing New Zealand’s lack of investment capital.
Kea New Zealand recently conducted survey that reveals many overseas-based Kiwis are willing to commit time and money to the growth of New Zealand business.
Almost three-quarters (72.8 percent) of those surveyed said they would be willing to help mentor or manage New Zealand small to medium enterprise and at least 15 percent said they are strongly motivated to invest in New Zealand companies.
Entitled ‘Foreign Investment from Kiwis: The potential for New Zealand’s diaspora to invest in our productive economy’, the research included interviews and insights from more than 500 people in New Zealand and offshore, including 469 Kiwi expats who identified themselves as prospective investors.
