There's an upside to New Zealand's faltering equities markets, according to one of the country's niche superannuation providers, Eosaver.
"When share prices are down, you can buy a lot more shares with investors' savings. At the moment you can pick up a variety of quality shares at heavy discounts," said Eosaver national manager Sasha Grujic.
"Deflated markets offer greater opportunities to increase the value of your total KiwiSaver return.
"When the market corrects and picks up again, you have more shares and the value of your portfolio is boosted. Any short-term view on shares invested for long-term goals is rather meaningless."
