New data shows iwi and hapu owned businesses have emerged from the economic downturn in good shape and performing well.
The ANZ NZ report shows these commercial entities are performing better than many of this country's largest listed companies for the 2023 -24 financial year.
The findings come from long running collaborative research including 10 years of data and involving 38 iwi/hapu entities managing treaty settlement assets.
This report from ANZ comes just months after a report by the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment into Te Ōhanga Māori - The Māori Economy- found that it is a significant, and increasingly important contributor to the wider economy of New Zealand.
ANZ's Head of Māori Relationships, David Harrison, joins Kathryn to talk about the latest report's findings.
