Notes:
- KiwiSaver membership numbers may include:
- People living overseas. If a KiwiSaver member moves overseas, they can choose to remain a member, even if they no longer reside here.
- People who have died, as the process of closing their accounts and exiting can take time to complete.
- People with no income are excluded.
- The total income includes PIE (portfolio investment entity) income. For some members, their only income is from their KiwiSaver investment, resulting in PIE income.
- Income details are for the tax year prior to the financial year. For example, income details for members as at 30 June 2026 are from the 2025 tax year.
- To ensure data confidentiality we have grouped some categories.
- Additional data is available in the KiwiSaver annual Excel download.
