WELCOME TO PERRIAM & PARTNERS

The first thing you need to know about us is that we are really good at our job, the second is that this website is updated weekly, yes weekly, and the third, it's the very reason why we come to work "passion, purpose and profit".

Perriams' success is built on forging personal relationships with our clients. Simply put, the more we invest in understanding you, your family and your business, the more valuable the insight we can offer.

THE PACESETTER - 15 April 2024
 

OPINION

A research paper by the Treasury has found that on average half of Kiwi households received more from the Government than they paid in taxes. No wonder there is nothing left in the kitty for Health, Police and Roading. 

OF INTEREST

17% of our New Zealand population is now over 65 and by 2043 this is predicted to grow to 22.6%.

HOT TOPIC

What is your view on world athletics offering up $50,000 for those in Track and Field who win a gold at the Paris Olympics this year.

SPOTLIGHT

Tenancy changes are on the way. The headline change announced by the Government last week was the reintroduction of the 90 day “no-cause” termination for periodic tenancies. 

GEM OF THE WEEK

Has to go to Ryan Fox for hitting the lead at Augusta during the first round. Whilst he is a long way off now, what a buzz for New Zealand and Fox himself. 

TAX TALK

Despite a sluggish economy and a technical recession, billions of dollars of overdue infrastructure spend is needed and Finance Minister, Nicola Willis, has firmed up on a commitment to delivering income tax cuts, so where is the money coming from? 

THE MARKETS

It wasn’t so long ago that we were nearly at full employment. With some tough trading conditions out there, some economists expect that between now and next year there will be 30,000 – 50,000 more unemployed people.
