There are a lot of good reasons for business owners and investors to choose New Zealand.
New Zealand’s thriving and stable economy and political system, creativity and innovation, ease of doing business and unmatched quality of life make it an attractive place to invest.
Our reputation and global index ranking provide a unique opportunity to enjoy New Zealand’s exceptional lifestyle while developing business.
Although our country is innovative and progressive in its high standards for business and global ranking, it is the climate, lifestyle and culture that are key for investors to choose New Zealand as their new home.
For most investor migrants the state of their home country (economy, environment, policy and politics), coupled with the fear that circumstances might worsen, are strong motives to leave.
New Zealand's draw cards are its famous lifestyle (relaxed pace, environment, friendly people and strong education system), prior visits and family or friends.
Only a small number of investor migrants have migrated to New Zealand for the sole purpose of investing their funds.

The goal of this strategy is to attract high quality investment to accelerate growth throughout the whole of New Zealand. Traditionally most investor migrants place their funds into passive investments as part of their visa application.
Making prudent investment decisions is important to investor migrants, and because they know little about investing in New Zealand, they perceive passive as the most expedient and safest investment to base an application on.
Strategists at the Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment have identified considerable untapped intellectual and financial potential for contributions from investor migrants to New Zealand's economy.
They have developed the Investment Attraction Strategy to encourage more diverse investment portfolios.
Offshore markets that are particular targets for this strategy are the US, UK and Europe, Japan, China, Singapore, Hong Kong and Australia.
