Note that many KiwiSaver
funds exclude controversial weapons. However, the category of Weapons used in
this analysis is broader in scope, covering all munitions, firearms and
military weapons. Similarly Mindful Money uses a broader scope for fossil fuels
than the government’s rules for default KiwiSaver funds. The full definitions
