Why Westpac KiwiSaver Scheme.
Strong performance and expertise
Most of our funds were in the top 25% performing KiwiSaver funds in their categories for one and three year returns in the Morningstar KiwiSaver 360 report to 30 June 2026.*
Low fees
The more you pay in fees, the less money you’ll have for your future. We have low fees on average compared with other KiwiSaver providers.^
We take sustainable investment seriously
We take sustainable investment seriously and, as part of our approach, we look for investments that help reduce the carbon footprint of our funds. We've been recognised as a Responsible Investment Leader four times running by the Responsible Investment Association Australasia (RIAA)#.

Low fees make a difference.
Our fees are low, which means more of your money stays invested and working towards your future.
You can see in the graph how our KiwiSaver fees compare with the industry average across different fund types. For example, our Balanced Fund has a fund fee of 0.50% (50c per $100), compared to the industry average fee of 0.91% (91c per $100). On a $10,000 investment, that’s a difference of about $50 a year with us, versus $91 on average.
While the difference may seem small, over time lower KiwiSaver fees can make a big difference to how much you end up with.
This graph compares current fees for some of the Westpac KiwiSaver Scheme funds with the KiwiSaver industry average for the relevant diversified fund type. It uses data from Sorted Smart Investor as of 29 May 2026. We’ve shown five funds for simplicity, but all Westpac KiwiSaver Scheme fund fees are below the industry average in their category. The comparison shows fees over one year based on a $10,000 KiwiSaver balance. Your actual fees may be more or less, depending on your balance. Fees for both Westpac KiwiSaver Scheme funds and the industry average can change
