Weapons Free
Cut Ties With Weapons Investment
85% of Kiwis don’t want firearms, cluster bombs, nuclear weapons or other military weapons in their KiwiSaver fund.
In 2016, after a public outcry, all KiwiSaver providers excluded manufacturers of cluster bombs and landmines. In the wake of the Christchurch shootings, some have excluded firearms, such as semi-automatic weapons. For many investors, the issue is broader. They don’t want their KiwiSaver fund to include any companies that make profits from weapons manufacturers.
But $183 million of KiwiSaver money is still invested in companies involved in the manufacture of weapons, over $100 million of that in nuclear weapons. More than half of the 265 KiwiSaver funds contain investment in nuclear weapons.
