The 2025 Budget has come and gone, but the Finance Minister has confirmed raising the superannuation age was still on National's radar after they campaigned on it in the last election.

Infometrics' Principal Economist says the Government's not entirely ignoring the lack of budget funding allocated for lifting KiwiSaver employer contributions. The Greens say the Government hasn't accounted for the cost to public services, which could cost more than $700 hundred million. Finance Minister Nicola Willis says that's being worked on - and will be in next year's Budget. Brad Olsen says the hole wasn't costed, but hasn't been forgotten. "There is a cost - it will have to be met, but it's not being directly disclosed in the Budget figures." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Finance Minister Nicola Willis unveiled her second budget yesterday - and its big news if you're a business owner, a Kiwisaver member or a teenager on the benefit. What impact will the changes have? Also, a man who heckled Rail Minister Winston Peters at a press conference earlier this week is facing an employment investigation. Should his behaviour in his own time be subject to an investigation by his bosses? To answer those questions, economist and Infometrics chief executive Brad Olsen and political commentator Dr Bryce Edwards joined Nick Mills for Friday Faceoff. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A view suggests says yesterday's Budget is highlighting New Zealand's fiscal realities. It found more than 21-billion dollars in savings - including nearly 13-billion from its pay equity changes. Despite the many cuts - the Government isn't forecasting New Zealand to return to a surplus until 2029. Infometrics Principal Economist Brad Olsen told Mike Hosking reaching that will be touch and go. He says the next few Budgets are likely to be the same, and it will probably get harder to reach that target -- meaning less spending, or something else, may be required.

Infometrics chief executive Brad Olsen joins Todd Zaner to recap the big wins, big cuts, and big moments from finance minister Nicola Willis' second budget.

Newstalk ZB's Political Editor Jason Walls and Infometrics Chief Executive and Principal Economist Brad Olsen join Matt Heath and Tyler Adams to unpack Budget 2025. They look through the big ticket announcement about the Government cutting their KiwiSaver contributions while requiring employers to cough up more. Finance Minster Nicola Willis also revealed a $1 billion increase in funding for hospitals, more funding for learning support coordinators in schools, and changes to benefit rates for young people. But most importantly, the team go through how all this is being funded through reprioritisations. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In 2010, the NZ Green Building Council introduced the Homestar sustainability certification, a framework that aims to allow designers, architects and builders to build better, more environmentally friendly, energy efficient housing.

Brad Olsen from Infometrics, an economic consultancy that has just published a detailed report on the Homestar certification,  joins Bernard Hickey to dig into the broad range of benefits of Homestar-rated housing, for both the planet and the back pocket.

New Zealand banks are being asked to pay up in the next few months. Kiwibank, BNZ, Westpac, ANZ and ASB will need to repay around $9.2 billion in cheap Covid-era loans to the Reserve Bank. Infometrics Principal Economist Brad Olsen told Mike Hosking that they have variety of options they can use to repay the money. He says the banks knew when taking out these loans they'd have to pay them back eventually. Olsen told Hosking that if they're not ready to pay them back, they probably don't qualify to be called bankers at this point. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Recently, the Ark of the Covenant was mentioned in the news as a declassified CIA document that claimed during a "remote viewing" session, an agent knew the location of the ancient artifact. The Ark of the Covenant was a chest that carried the Ten Commandments or the higher law of Moses. It has been reported that the Ark may have been more than just a container. It was quite possibly a machine that could communicate with non-human intelligence or a weapon capable of using low frequencies to bring down buildings. With advanced technologies being developed, the walls of historical silence are beginning to crack as we can better unravel the mysteries beneath our feet. Tonight on Ground Zero (7-10 pm, pacific time on groundzeroplus.com), Clyde Lewis talks with Brad Olsen about PYRAMIDION.

There's an unclear picture of what New Zealand's losing from people moving overseas. About 70 thousand Kiwis left the country last year. Of those, 38% were people aged 18 to 30. New Zealand had a net migration gain of 27,000 migrants in 2024, just a fraction of the 128,000 gained in 2023. Infometrics Principal Economist Brad Olsen told Mike Hosking while there's clear data on the people arriving, it's not the same story for departures. He says there's no strong evidence of what skills are leaving, only anecdotes. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
