The latest forecast from BusinessNZ shows New Zealand's economy's regained momentum. It's predicting solid economic growth out to 2028, citing the fact business confidence is holding up, the Performance of Manufacturing and Services Indexes are back in black, tourism's growing, and credit activity's increased. Chief Economist John Pask says performance is improving across the board. He told Mike Hosking there's still some concern in regard to the upcoming election and political risks surrounding policy changes, but businesses are basically saying that they are concerned, but they're moving forward. Pask says elections are important, but they're not the be all end all, as it were. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
