The Prosperity Project

The credit card cult with Luke Kemeys

The Reserve Bank can hold the OCR steady, so why can longer-term mortgage rates still move? On The Prosperity Project, Nadine Higgins talks to Matt Logan, portfolio manager at Fisher Funds, about what rising US bond yields mean for Kiwi borrowers and savers.

They also look at how Big Tech is borrowing to build AI data centres, and whether rising borrowing costs could slow the boom.

Mike Casey joins Nadine Higgins on The Prosperity Project to explain his proposal for an Australian-style EV leasing scheme, how it could work through employers and why he believes it would help more New Zealanders cut their transport costs.

They also discuss battery life, road user charges, depreciation and charging on longer trips — and when keeping the petrol car already in your driveway might still be the cheapest option.

Could a $5,000 investment at birth help set every New Zealander up for retirement?

Nadine Higgins speaks to Fraser Whineray about his KiwiSaver 2.0 proposal, including automatic enrolment at birth, compulsory employer contributions that rise gradually over time, and bringing the self-employed into the system.

They also discuss the trade-offs around first-home withdrawals, who ultimately pays for higher contributions, and why Whineray wants KiwiSaver access protected from changes to the pension age.
