How often should you review your KiwiSaver — and what should you actually be looking at?

In this episode of The Prosperity Project, we talk through what matters when reviewing your KiwiSaver, from your retirement goals and contribution levels to fees, fund types and provider performance.

Financial commentator Russell Hutchinson explains why you shouldn’t just chase last year’s top-performing fund, how to think about active versus passive management, and why performance after fees is what really counts.

Plus, is checking your KiwiSaver balance every week helpful — or just a distraction?
