ANZ KiwiSaver SchemeANNUAL REPORT | FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2015

Dear members

Welcome to the annual report for ANZ KiwiSaver.

If you’re new to ANZ KiwiSaver this year, congratulations for taking this important step towards building a more secure future for yourself. We know how important your savings are to you and we thank you for choosing to invest them with us.

This year, we’re delighted to report strong performance across all funds (the ‘Funds’) in ANZ KiwiSaver. Continued expansion in the global economy, generally buoyant financial markets and lower interest rates all contributed to this result. You can read a summary of what happened in investment markets on page 5; performance figures and unit prices for the Funds are on pages 2 and 3.

The pleasing results are also a reflection of our capable and ‘seasoned’ investment team. Their management skills, together with the support of all our business teams, helped many members see really good progress in their account balances this year. These skills also helped ANZ Investments win several industry awards along the way (more on page 8).

As the largest KiwiSaver provider, we know we have a serious responsibility to the one-in-four Kiwis trusting us with their retirement savings. During the year, we’ve continued to review and develop our service and processes. It’s always our aim to try and make things as simple as we can for members – within regulatory and security limitations. Some specific achievements and milestones are noted on page 7.

And a really big focus for us is to ensure we’re in touch regularly – telling you what you need to know, in a way that suits you. With such a large membership, electronic or digital communications are easily the most timely and cost-effective way of doing this. Signing up to receive information from us by email (and making sure we have your correct email address!) is the best way to keep your ‘finger on the pulse’.

Finally, it’s as important as ever to get professional advice before making any significant financial decisions. A regular review with an authorised financial adviser will help keep you on track towards achieving your financial goals.

We’re excited about the recent and ongoing success of ANZ KiwiSaver – in particular, helping you towards the retirement you dream of having. Thank you for being part of ANZ KiwiSaver.

What is a unit price?

In ANZ KiwiSaver, your savings are pooled with the savings of all other members. Your share of that pool is based on how much you’ve contributed and is represented by the number of ‘units’ you own. The daily calculation to determine the value of the units is called ‘unit pricing’.

How is the unit price worked out?

The price for each unit is calculated by dividing the value of ANZ KiwiSaver’s total assets by the number of units held by all members. Because the value of investment markets (and assets) fluctuate daily, so too does the value of the scheme, and therefore the unit price of the fund you’re invested in.

The numbers tell the story

As at 31 March 2015

Following the global financial crisis – now some six or seven years ago – economies around the world have shown a gradual but consistent recovery. We’ve seen a sustained period of growth for investment markets, even though there have also been several pockets of volatility along the way.

During the year, financial markets were supported by the world’s major central banks taking extra – and sometimes unconventional – steps to try and stimulate further growth and stability in their respective economies. Those steps included the widespread buying of government bonds as a means of lowering interest rates and increasing money supply. This is also known as ‘quantitative easing’.

Yet, even with this assistance, the degree to which the global economy grew was still slightly disappointing. Factors combining to put the brakes on growth included the reluctance of companies to commit to significant capital expansion, and geopolitical concerns (such as the conflicts in Ukraine and in Syria).

Looking at asset classes, international shares was the standout performer, as investors collectively shifted from lower-yielding cash and fixed interest into the sharemarket. This was made all the easier through the central bank measures mentioned above, aimed precisely at boosting investment.

Alongside the strong results seen in growth assets (shares and listed property), fixed interest performed extremely well. Capital gains were the main reason for this, driven by the falling interest rates everywhere. (When interest rates fall, fixed interest investments tend to generate capital gains; the opposite is true when interest rates rise.)

In New Zealand, the economy also maintained good momentum, buoyed by strong immigration flows and a robust property market. The property market was further fuelled by the low interest rates and ongoing Christchurch rebuild. In fact, such was the strength of the property market, the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) hinted that it would consider additional policies in an effort to cool the spiralling Auckland housing market. At the time of writing, the RBNZ has already introduced some of these measures.

Mind the bumps

After three years of investment performance exceeding most analyst forecasts, it’s important to sound a word of caution about expectations going forward. ANZ Investments expects more subdued performance from financial markets over the coming year.

With interest rates at close to historic lows, and both the share and property markets appearing ‘fully priced’ (representing a fair market value), we think the strong gains of recent years are unlikely to be repeated in the short term.

In this environment, we see our role being to stay committed to the investment principles of quality, liquidity and diversification. That means maintaining a well-mixed portfolio of sound investment assets that we can readily sell if and when we need to.

Investment volatility is part of investing and doesn’t have to be cause for panic. It’s the long-term trend that matters when it comes to saving for your retirement, and it’s virtually impossible to get the big double-digit growth (the ups) without the potential for some downs as well. From your perspective, keeping a disciplined and patient approach to your investment – regardless of what’s happening in the markets – is one of the smartest things you can do.

When you evaluate the performance of your KiwiSaver scheme, it’s important to look at the long term – after all, that’s what you’re saving for.

This chart shows how ANZ KiwiSaver’s multi-asset-class funds have performed over the last seven years – and how each fund has performed relative to other similar funds, using the industry median performance, as published in the Mercer KiwiSaver Survey.

Our goal is not necessarily to be the top performer all the time (that would be impossible), but we do aim to beat the median performance.

Over seven years, all of ANZ KiwiSaver Scheme’s multi-asset-class funds have equalled or beaten industry median performance*

Looking at the bigger picture

*Mercer KiwiSaver Survey, March 2015. Performance in the survey is for the seven years ended 31 December 2014. Data was obtained from survey participants and is after tax (at the highest PIR of 28%) and after all fees that are asset based. This includes management fees, performance fees, trustee fees and other in-fund costs.

Past performance does not indicate future performance. The actual performance any given investor realises will depend on many things, is not guaranteed and may be negative as well as positive.Refer back cover for all awards and ratings disclaimers.

Understanding the ‘risk/return’ profile

A key focus in investment management is the relationship between risk and return. If you’re seeking higher returns, you need to be willing to accept more risk. The risk/return profile shown is the expected long-term risk/return.

Need more help choosing a fund? Choosing the right fund is important as, over time, investment performance can affect your savings.

• Get more information about our funds (and a copy of the investment statement) at anz.co.nz/fundoptions

• Complete the online Risk Profile Questionnaire to identify your risk/return profile and which fund may be appropriate for you (anz.co.nz/riskprofiletool)

• Seek personalised financial advice from an ANZ Authorised Financial Adviser, by calling us on 0800 269 238.

Of course, your circumstances and savings goals may change over time, and you can make further fund changes in the future if you need to.

All of our funds, other than the Cash Fund, may invest in alternative assets.

Manager’s statementIn accordance with the reporting provisions of the KiwiSaver Act 2006 and the KiwiSaver Regulations 2006, ANZ New Zealand Investments Limited (the ‘Manager’ of ANZ KiwiSaver), declares the following in respect of ANZ KiwiSaver.

The Manager certifies that:

• All the benefits required to be paid from ANZ KiwiSaver in accordance with the terms of the Trust Deed and the KiwiSaver scheme rules have been paid.

• The market value of the assets of ANZ KiwiSaver at the close of the financial year equalled or exceeded the total value of benefits that would have been payable had all members of ANZ KiwiSaver ceased to be members at that date and had provision been made for the continued payment of all benefits being paid to members and other beneficiaries as at the close of the financial year.

• The Scheme Provider Agreement dated 24 April 2007 (as amended from time to time) between the Commissioner of Inland Revenue and the Manager remained in force throughout the period covered by this annual report.

• Contributions received in respect of each member, including contributions received via the Commissioner of Inland Revenue in respect of that member, have been applied in accordance with the Trust Deed and the KiwiSaver Act 2006.

• The most recent prospectus for ANZ KiwiSaver was registered with the Registrar of Financial Service Providers under the Securities Act 1978 on 19 September 2014.

Changes that were made during the period covered by this annual report to the Trust Deed and the terms of the offer of interests in ANZ KiwiSaver

There were no changes to the Trust Deed of ANZ KiwiSaver for the year ending 31 March 2015.

Some important changes to the foreign superannuation tax rules came into effect on 1 April 2014. The new rules aim to tighten up and clarify the tax payable for New Zealand residents who have an interest in a foreign superannuation scheme that was acquired while they were non-resident. In addition there is a new rule that allows KiwiSaver members to request a withdrawal from their KiwiSaver scheme to pay any tax owing from foreign superannuation (excluding Australia) that is invested in a KiwiSaver scheme, directly to Inland Revenue.

The Government made some changes to the KiwiSaver first home withdrawal and subsidy on 1 April 2015. The main change allows eligible KiwiSaver members to withdraw their member tax credits for a first home purchase. In addition, the KiwiSaver first home subsidy was renamed the KiwiSaver HomeStart grant, and the grant was doubled for eligible members who are purchasing a newly built home.

Other changes include:

• the home a member purchases must be in New Zealand

• members can now withdraw for home ownership on Māori land; this is in line with the Government’s Māori home ownership and land use goals.

From 1 June 2015, members may be able to access their KiwiSaver savings to pay deposit payments for a first home before the sale and purchase goes unconditional.

From 21 May 2015, the $1,000 tax-free ‘kick start’ contribution to new KiwiSaver members was stopped.

Changes that were made during the period covered by this annual report to the investment objectives and policies

There have been no changes to the Funds’ investment objectives and policies since the last balance date. The benchmark asset class mixes may change from time to time as determined by the Manager.

On behalf of ANZ New Zealand Investments Limited, the Manager:

Trustee’s statement

The New Zealand Guardian Trust Company Limited, the ‘Trustee’ of ANZ KiwiSaver, declares the following in respect of ANZ KiwiSaver:

In respect of the year ended 31 March 2015, the Trustee is satisfied that the Manager has not breached an issuer obligation (as defined in section 4(1) of the Securities Trustees and Statutory Supervisors Act 2011) in a material respect.

The full financial statements have been prepared by the Manager in accordance with the Financial Reporting Act 1993, the KiwiSaver Act 2006 (each of which remains applicable to the Funds during the relevant transitional periods of the Financial Reporting Act 2013 and the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013), the Trust Deed and New Zealand Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (NZ GAAP).

Independent auditor’s report on the summary financial statements

To the members of ANZ KiwiSaver SchemeThe accompanying summary of financial statements on pages 18 to 21, which comprise the summary statement of net assets as at 31 March 2015 and the summary statements of changes of net assets and cash flows for the year then ended and notes, are extracted from the audited financial statements of ANZ KiwiSaver Scheme (the ‘Scheme’) for the year ended 31 March 2015. We expressed an unmodified audit opinion on those financial statements in our report dated 21 July 2015.

The summary financial statements do not contain all the disclosures required for full financial statements under generally accepted accounting practice in New Zealand. Reading the summary financial statements, therefore, is not a substitute for reading the audited financial statements of the Scheme.

Manager’s responsibility for the financial statementsThe Manager is responsible for the preparation of a summary of the audited financial statements in accordance with FRS-43 Summary Financial Statements and that comply with the requirements of Clause 7 of Schedule 5A of the Securities Regulations 2009.

Auditor’s responsibilityOur responsibility is to express an opinion on the summary financial statements based on our procedures, which were conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand) (ISA (NZ)) 810 Engagements to Report on Summary Financial Statements.

Our firm has also provided other assurance services to the Funds and Scheme in relation to prospectus reporting, trustee reporting, and semi-annual controls reporting. Subject to certain restrictions, partners and employees of our firm may also deal with the Funds and Scheme on normal terms within the ordinary course of business of the Funds and Scheme. These matters have not impaired our independence as auditor of the Funds and Scheme. The firm has no other relationship with, or interest in, the Funds and Scheme.

OpinionIn our opinion, the summary financial statements have been correctly extracted from the audited financial statements of ANZ KiwiSaver Scheme for the year ended 31 March 2015, and the information reported in the summary financial statements is consistent in all material respects with the audited financial statements, in accordance with FRS-43 Summary Financial Statements and complies with the requirements of Clause 7 of Schedule 5A of the Securities Regulations 2009.
