"Rules for government-owned funds like the New Zealand Superannuation Fund"

Illustration for Income Tax Act 2007

When the government owns the New Zealand Superannuation Fund or the Venture Capital Fund, it has to follow certain rules. You need to think of the government as a company when it comes to these funds. The government is like a company that owns these funds. The government has to work out how much income it gets and how much it spends on these funds. It does this by pretending the funds are a company. This company is owned by a minister who is in charge of the fund. There are rules that apply to groups of companies that also apply to the government when it owns these funds. These rules apply to the New Zealand Superannuation Fund and the Venture Capital Fund. They also apply to companies that invest in these funds, as referred to in the New Zealand Superannuation and Retirement Income Act 2001 and the Venture Capital Fund Act 2019. The government has to follow these rules when it owns the funds. It's like the government is a company that owns the funds. The ministers in charge of the funds are like the owners of the company.
