The Prosperity Project · The forgotten pension money Kiwis are leaving behind · 7 Jun 2026 podcast

I can see why you send people to get tax advice because we could get into the weeds here, right?

Yep.

But one of the distinctions we need to call out as well, that if you're bringing it in from the UK, you're putting it into your KiwiSaver fund, it has to go into a specific type of fund.

And that type of fund has some restrictions.

So we're not going to be pulling it out to buy our first home in New Zealand.

So even though it's a little more locked up than KiwiSaver is, you can get access to it at 57 it's about to be, isn't it?

Whereas KiwiSaver, it's 65.

So that, I guess, could be to your benefit.

Yeah.

They go, woohoo, travel the world, and then they run out of money at 70.

Are there any other costs associated with getting it here?

If we are bringing it in within four years, we're not paying tax on it, let's just assume.

Am I...

paying the scheme to go find my money and send it over here?

So is that because they require you to have financial advice to make that decision?

So let's just dig into that for a moment.

So the defined contribution, quite similar to KiwiSaver, easy for us to wrap our heads around, but the defined benefit scheme is more like maybe we understand the pension to be.

Is that something that you would leave there and just collect every year from the UK tax department?

Pension provider.

Sign me up, happy date.
