KiwiSaver for over 65s

A smart way to save, low fees and access when you need it. Has KiwiSaver become an ideal investment option for over 65s?

A new choice for managing your nest egg

Did you know you can join KiwiSaver even if you’re over 65? You can invest your savings in the ASB KiwiSaver Scheme and have access to your savings when you need it. If you're still working, you can keep making regular contributions from your wages. If you want to stop making regular contributions, you can complete a non-deduction notice and give it to your employer.

Why join the ASB KiwiSaver Scheme?

Confidence.

The ASB Group helps around 500,000 Kiwis invest for their future, so you can be confident we have the experience and expertise to help you save for your retirement. 

Low fees.

The ASB KiwiSaver Scheme has competitive fees compared to other managed funds, leaving more of your money invested to maximise returns.

Cashflow when you need it.

When you're 65 or over, you can access the funds in your ASB KiwiSaver Scheme account at any time. You can also set up regular withdrawals of at least $100 fortnightly, monthly or quarterly and/or lump sum amounts of at least $500 each time to provide a regular income. You just need to keep at least $2,000 in your ASB KiwiSaver Scheme account.

Boost your savings.

If you're employed and over 65 your employer can still make contributions to your KiwiSaver account, but they're not required to by law.

Know where you're at.

We've redesigned our online account view to make information easier to understand. You can now set up your KiwiSaver savings goal and project your future balance – all within FastNet Classic internet banking and our ASB mobile app. Find out more.

Help me choose a fund

Choosing the right fund is an important part of achieving your savings goals.

Some funds grow slowly but steadily, and rarely take a step back. Others have stronger long-term growth potential, but can drop back now and then.

Your returns with the ASB KiwiSaver Scheme

There are lots of investment options for your nest egg. We understand how important it is to maximise your savings so it can be a balance between risk and return.

Secure investments like term deposits and savings accounts generally have lower returns, whereas investments in managed investment schemes such as the ASB KiwiSaver Scheme, may potentially produce higher returns depending on the fund and how long you invest.
