I Switched My KiwiSaver From Milford to Kernel
Get Started With Kernel ➡️ www.kernelwealth.co.nz/kernel-kiwisaver Last year, I switched my KiwiSaver from Milford to Kernel. This wasn’t because I thought Milford was a bad provider. My investment philosophy had simply changed. After spending hundreds of hours researching investing, I became increasingly convinced by the case for low-cost, passive investing, and I wanted my KiwiSaver to reflect that. In this video, I explain: ➡️ Why fees became such an important factor in my decision ➡️ The evidence comparing active and passive investment management ➡️ Why I chose Kernel’s High Growth Fund ➡️ How the KiwiSaver transfer process worked ➡️ The features I discovered after making the switch ➡️ Why the right provider can change as your investment philosophy evolves Kernel’s KiwiSaver funds have low management fees, a wide range of investment options and the ability to manage KiwiSaver, index funds and savings in one place. Kernel supported me in making this video. However, the views and opinions expressed are entirely my own. This video is for general information and educational purposes only.
