Welcome to the online library we have created for placing reports and specialised commentaries too large or detailed to go into our flagship publication the BNZ Weekly Overview.
Weekly overview
The BNZ Weekly Overview is sent out each Thursday night to over 28,000 subscribers. The publication covers the latest data on the NZ economy, the housing market, interest rates, and foreign exchange.
BNZ Confidence Survey
The survey is sent out to each of the 28,000 subscribers to the BNZ Weekly Overview on the first Thursday of each month and results are published the following Monday. It is the most up to date gauge of changes in business sentiment in New Zealand and accurately picks changes which subsequently appear in other surveys released with lags of many weeks.

In reality, #8 gauge wire refers at best to creativity and versatility, and more properly to make-do resourcefulness and hands on practicality.

The global competition for skilled labour is heating up. Oxford Economics and Towers Watson’s study, Global Talent 2021, predicts Australia will be facing a skilled ‘talent deficit’ by 2021 and finding it more difficult to retain skilled labour. Australia will be in good company, with other OECD countries – including the UK, US, Canada and Japan – also facing talent shortages.
