Income Tax Act 2007

Schedule 29: Portfolio investment entities: listed investors

You could also call this:

"Investors in special investments, like companies and trusts, listed under the Income Tax Act"

Illustration for Income Tax Act 2007

You are looking at a list of investors for something called a portfolio investment entity. This list is part of the Income Tax Act 2007. It includes things like companies and trusts. You can find investors like a PIE, a foreign PIE equivalent, and a life insurer on this list. The Crown, as owner of the New Zealand Superannuation Fund, is also on the list. Other investors include the Accident Compensation Corporation and local authorities. There are more investors on the list, such as a boutique investor class and a community trust. A company that is wholly owned by the Crown is also an investor. You can find more information about these investors in the Income Tax Act 2007, which is available on the New Zealand legislation website. Some of these investors have special rules that apply to them, such as a superannuation fund established under the National Provident Fund Restructuring Act 1990. You can find more information about these rules in the relevant acts, such as the Government Superannuation Fund Act 1956 and the Venture Capital Fund Act 2019.
