Milford KiwiSaver Performance - May 2022

  • Fabook Messenger Sharing Link

Using the most recent returns and fund update reports from May 2022, we will examine Milford’s recent KiwiSaver Performance.

The Milford KiwiSaver Scheme started in 2003 and uses an active investment management strategy for its assets, making it one of the largest in New Zealand. Milford contends that with this technique, the provider may take advantage of investment possibilities while managing risk as it arises. Which, given their track record of acolytes, usually works out in the end.

During the first week of May, a global sell-off commenced, led by U.S. technology firms, which recorded their largest one-day fall since June 2020. Investors across the world are frightened by high inflation and rising interest rates after the US Federal Reserve's decision to increase interest rates by 0.50% compared to its prior projection, putting pressure on other central banks around the world to perform aggressive hikes to combat inflation.
