We've made some changes

Good Returns is the biggest and most comprehensive news centre in New Zealand for financial advisers.

The site has been providing advisers and the industry with high quality news, data and commentary on the industry for more than 11 years.

In keeping up with the times, and to provide you with an improved service, we have made some changes to the site. While the site may look different, you can be assured our highly experienced team of business journalists will continue to deliver you with the same first rate commentary you've come to expect, but we have made a few changes to enable you to more easily access areas of specific interest.

The key changes to the site are:

  • A cleaner and fresher look
  • Easier to get around - All navigation is now across the top in two levels
  • Each part of the advisory industry has its own centre/ each is specific to an area of advice.
  • New sections including KiwiSaver, Adviser Education along with a comprehensive Rates and Data page.
  • Each has its own Newsletter

In the Navigation Bar running across the top there are two levels; the first in Blue has links to popular sections of the site.

When you go to one of these sections more detail is displayed in the next, Orange line.

In the BLUE level you have the following sections:

  • News - all the latest breaking news relevant to financial advisers can be found here. In the second level of the navigation we have sub-categorised further news for your convenience to include links to Mortgages, Deposits, Insurance, Shares, KiwiSaver, Investments and Property.
  • People & Events - here's where you'll find the latest appointments, job vacancies and diary events.
  • The Mortgage Centre - Provides you with daily commentary, a comprehensive sortable list of home loan rates along with changes and exciting graphing tools.
  • The Insurance Centre - includes news stories of interest to the life insurance sector including opinion pieces and business management articles
  • Phil's Blog - Want to know the inside oil of what's happening in your industry? Then Phil's Blog is a must read. Philip is the publisher of Good Returns and ASSET Magazine and has been covering the industry, continuously, since the late 1980s.
  • Toolbox - ASSET Education is an exciting centre where advisers can earn CPD points. The Toolbox also features the latest issue of ASSET Magazine and the NZ Mortgage Mag. You can also find the latest finance and investing books in the Adviser bookstore.
  • Data & Rates - Take a direct shortcut here to view both mortgage rates and deposit rate data at a quick glance.
  • Good Returns continues to provide news on super in the KiwiSaver section. The popular Special Report and Awards pages also remain.

    For your convenience, the News section brings together relevant news items from sister sites within the Tarawera Publishing stable to give you quick access to news from Depositrates.co.nz and Landlords.co.nz.

    To make it as easy as possible for you to keep up to date with industry news and commentary you can subscribe to one of our many free email newsletters or RSS feeds.
