Brooke Roberts: Sharesies – a solution for the NZ Everyday Investor

 

 

 

 

 

Brooke Roberts joins us today to discuss the sharemarket – lowering barriers of entry to an historically restrictive market.

Why should those with $50 not have the same opportunities as those with $500k. Brooke joins host Darcy Ungaro and the mysterious ‘Pumpkin’ as they ponder this question, as well as others.

Brooke Roberts is a co-founder and CEO of Sharesies. Sharesies aims to give someone with $5 the same investment opportunities as someone with $500,000. Sharesies removes the high investment buy-in and financial jargon that surrounds the investment industry.

Their philosophy is that people should be able to invest regular amounts that they can afford. Recently celebrating a year since Sharesies launch, they now have over 21,000 customers who have invested over $22m. Brooke has a Masters of Finance with Distinction and previously managed Kiwibank’s saving, transactional and investment portfolio and led Xero’s global ecosystem development.

Sam Stubbs: Ethical investing, Active or Passive, the Future of Investing, and getting down with ESG

Sam Stubbs: Ethical investing, Active or Passive, the Future of Investing, and getting down with ESG

 

 

 

Chew with your mouth closed, say please and thank you, don’t fart on your sister…Teaching your kids good behaviour and manners aren’t easy, especially if your spouse doesn’t have the same type of standards you have.

Weapons, tobacco, oil and exploitation – you could likely think of a few publicly traded companies here  – whilst ‘sin stocks’ may have been ‘in’ stocks back in the day, investors are now voting with their dollars. The result is that funding becomes more expensive for these industries and the sun is that much closer to setting for them.

More and more investors prefer to follow companies with good standards in the ethical, social, and governance arenas (ESG). We may not all agree on what industries are ‘sin’ and which ones are ethical, but there are some easy ones to avoid, and Simplicity are doing a good job at that. Sam points out some key observations here which may surprise you!

Sam Stubbs was most recently the CEO Of Tower Investments, a KiwiSaver default provider. Before that he was Managing Director of Hanover Group, and spent 10 years working for Goldman Sachs in London and Hong Kong. He previously worked for Natwest Markets, Fay Richwhite and IBM New Zealand.

He has been a Board Member of the Financial Services Council, and a member of the Government Taskforce on Financial Services.

Sam has an MA (Hons) from the University of Auckland. Sam is the father of two children. He dreams of Simplicity and sailing around the world.

Jarrod Kerr: Chief Economist at Kiwibank. Interpreting today’s economic environment – Part Two

Jarrod Kerr: Chief Economist at Kiwibank. Interpreting today’s economic environment – Part Two

Freak Out or Buckle Up Baby!? Interesting international events could impact NZ big time – is this good or bad? In Part Two we continue the discussion with Jarrod Kerr, Chief Economist at Kiwibank.

In some parts of Europe, interest rates have actually been negative – what does this actually look like and what does this mean for an economy when you have to pay for the privilege of storing money there?

Growth in NZ may be slow, but it should be in the right direction from here at least – slow and steady wins the race. As the centre of trade pivots around to the East, how does NZ benefit? It’s not just about China, it’s India too we should watch out for and even start preparing now for.

Listen to the Podcast Here:

A little about Jarrod Kerr:

JP Morgan, to CBA to Credit Suisse, to CBA and now back home where he belongs at Kiwibank. Jarrods appetite for learning is only matched by his depth of knowledge and understanding of fixed interest markets and macro-economics.
