Last week we had the pleasure of spending three days with some of the newest additions to our network at the Wealthpoint New Adviser Induction programme. Coming from an interesting and diverse range of backgrounds – and with a wealth of experience among them - one thing we were surprised to learn was how many gamers there were in the group! A warm welcome to Niraj Boricha, Jai Bothra, Erin Davis, Dhruv Patel, Andrew Webster, Christopher Wycherley, and Peter Seligman – it’s great to have you as part of our growing Wealthpoint network. 

At last month’s Wealthpoint Pathways Conference, our new advisers and our conference gold sponsors teamed up to construct bikes for Mayfield School in Blenheim. While wrenches and pliers aren’t standard tools of the trade for financial advisers, we think they did an outstanding job (with some help from Team Up Events NZ & Fiji). It was great to receive some photos of the bikes in action on a beautiful Blenheim day last week. Thank you to Asteron Life New Zealand, Milford, Nikko Asset Management Group, Partners Life, and Vero Insurance New Zealand for helping make this possible  – and to David Nott, Mayfield School Principal.

It has been great to see the tremendous support for Pink Ribbon events around the country over the past week or so. Here at Wealthpoint Ltd, the team got together for a Pink Ribbon morning tea to raise funds to support the incredible work the Breast Cancer Foundation NZ does. You can visit https://lnkd.in/gyUNv9Ax to see how much has been raised for the education, patient support and medical research the foundation supports in its work to bring us closer to a day when there are zero deaths from breast cancer. Thank you to everyone who supported our Pink Ribbon event.

  This week we celebrated the contribution some of our Members and advisers have made to the Wealthpoint network, and the wider industry, at an awards dinner at Omaka Aviation Heritage Centre in Blenheim.

We’re fortunate to have some of the very best  financial advice practitioners in New Zealand working in the Wealthpoint network so our judges had a very tough job.

Our 2024 Wealthpoint Pathways Conference in Blenheim kicked off with an outstanding line-up of speakers who had the packed theatre thinking, and talking, about important issues and opportunities for our members, advisers, and clients. This year’s conference is also a celebration of Wealthpoint’s fifth year in operation – so, very timely to consider what role technology such as AI will play in our industry (and our lives) in the future, as well as what the economic landscape might look like. Our sincere thanks to Sir Bill English, KNZM, and Dr Masha McCauley for sharing your insights with us, to our fantastic MC - Joe Davis, and to all of our conference partners and suppliers – your support is greatly appreciated.

Changes to the CCCFA, aimed at introducing more flexibility in affordability calculations, have been welcomed by many in the Financial Services industry. Kylie Connor from Mainland, a Wealthpoint member business, does a great job summarising the changes and how a more pragmatic approach to affordability calculations will help more Kiwis achieve their home ownership goals.
