Why New Zealand needs overseas investment
All countries rely on overseas investment as it is a vital contributor to economic growth. Foreign direct investment makes up almost 40% (NZ$113 billion at March 2019) of New Zealand’s economy.
Overseas investment increases the goods and services available to New Zealanders, creates employment and opportunities for our exporters, and enhances the overall wellbeing of New Zealanders. Overseas investment brings new ideas, innovations and relationships that connect us with the world. Post COVID-19 – in what will be a time of rapid economic change – overseas investment will be an important funding source that supports New Zealand businesses to continue to grow and evolve, and keep more New Zealanders in employment.
Globally, New Zealand is seen as an attractive place to do business, with strengths in advanced technology, agriculture production, tourism, a skilled and adaptable workforce, sound infrastructure and very strong public and legal institutions.
Approximately 15% (NZ$15-16 billion at March 2019) of all foreign direct investment into New Zealand goes through the Overseas Investment Office (OIO), which gives effect to and
