Big month in markets. The AI trade came roaring back, bond yields around the world climbed to multi-year highs, and Bitcoin just had its strongest month since November 2024. Back home, NZ unemployment hit its highest level in over a decade - but economists still think the Reserve Bank has more rate hikes coming, because its mandate is inflation, not jobs.

We've broken down the eight things that actually mattered in August, and what they mean for your KiwiSaver plan. Swipe through for the full wrap.

Small team. Big milestone. $500 million in funds under management. 🎉

We hit $500 million a couple of weeks back - a proper milestone for a KiwiSaver challenger - so we celebrated the only way that felt right: a team night out at Caluzzi, a K' Road icon for 30 years and counting.

Massive thanks to everyone who's trusted us with their KiwiSaver plan along the way. This one's for you. 🥂
