Fisher Funds KiwiSaver Performance - December 2021

  • Fabook Messenger Sharing Link

Using the most recent returns and fund update reports from December 2021, We will be examining Fisher Funds KiwiSaver Performance by taking a look at the latest news, information, fees, fund investments, and data, such as fund performance and returns.

Fisher Funds is a Fund Manager founded by Carmel Fisher in 1998 and since then has continually grown the fund to include 19 investment professionals, making it one of New Zealand’s largest investment teams. Collectively, the team has over 200 years of investing experience. Fisher Funds provides a number of services, including KiwiSaver, managed funds, premium services tailored to wealthy individuals, workplace LifeSaver plans geared towards retirement, and financial advice. Fisher Funds manages seven funds under the KiwiSaver scheme and has an AUM of over NZ $3.3 Billion and 142,954 members. 

In December, the stock markets shrugged off the threat of the new 'Omicron' Covid wave. This new wave of "Omicron" at the end of 2021 caused some drops in fund returns. While the Omicron wave is expected to slow growth this year, a global recession is unlikely. Businesses should benefit from moderate economic growth. KiwiSaver investors shouldn't be concerned about one negative month yet focus on the long-term returns. The New Zealand Growth Fund gained 3% in January. This year, the market is likely to be very volatile. When prices go up and down, it can be stressful, but we can see this volatility as an opportunity to outperform the markets. Investors should focus on long-term investment goals despite the volatility and not get distracted by short-term gains.
