Cross-reference KiwiSaver fund marketing claims against actual NZX portfolio holdings. Which funds claiming to be “ethical” or “responsible” hold companies involved in fossil fuels, gambling, or weapons?
Methodology: We screen NZX-listed company holdings against six ethical concern categories: fossil fuels, weapons, gambling, tobacco/alcohol, animal welfare, and environmental harm. Company classifications are based on publicly known primary business activities — companies are only flagged where the concern is a material part of their business.
Scope: This tool covers the NZX portion of fund portfolios only. Most KiwiSaver funds also hold international equities (often 50-70% of the portfolio), which are not screened here. For comprehensive screening including international holdings, we recommend Mindful Money , an independent NZ charity that analyses all KiwiSaver fund holdings against 10 “issues of concern.”
Data source: Fund holdings from FMA Disclose Register . This is the same data source used by Mindful Money and the FMA for their own analyses.
Contact Energy operates Taranaki Combined Cycle (gas) and Stratford peaker (gas). Transitioning toward renewables.
Fletcher Building — construction materials including cement/concrete manufacturing. High-emissions industrial processes.
Companies involved in fossil fuel extraction, production, or electricity generation from coal, oil, or gas.
Companies manufacturing weapons, military equipment, or providing defence services.
Companies operating gambling venues, platforms, or deriving significant revenue from gambling.
Companies producing or primarily distributing tobacco or alcohol products.

We cross-reference KiwiSaver fund holdings data from the FMA Disclose Register against NZX-listed companies flagged for ethical concerns (fossil fuels, weapons, gambling, tobacco/alcohol, animal welfare, environmental harm). This covers the NZX portion of fund portfolios only.
Fund holdings data is sourced from the FMA Disclose Register — the official record of KiwiSaver fund investments. Company ethical classifications are based on publicly known business activities. For international holdings screening, see Mindful Money (mindfulmoney.nz).
We detect keywords like "ethical", "responsible", "sustainable", "ESG", "green", "impact", "fossil free", and "climate" in fund and scheme names. Funds using these terms are held to a higher standard — any flagged holdings are highlighted as a potential claim-vs-reality gap.
The grade (A+ to F) is based on the percentage of fund assets in NZX companies flagged for ethical concerns. A+ means less than 0.01% in flagged companies. Funds that claim to be ethical receive an additional penalty if they hold any flagged companies. This covers NZX holdings only — a fund could score A+ here but hold international companies with ethical concerns.
No. NZXplorer is a data platform, not a financial adviser. This tool provides transparency on fund holdings for informational purposes only. Always consult a licensed financial adviser before making investment decisions. For comprehensive ethical investment guidance, see Mindful Money (mindfulmoney.nz).
About Mindful Money
This tool is inspired by and complementary to Mindful Money (mindfulmoney.nz), an independent NZ charity that provides comprehensive ethical investment screening across both domestic and international holdings. Their methodology covers 10 “issues of concern” including fossil fuels, weapons, gambling, tobacco, alcohol, pornography, palm oil, GMOs, environmental damage, and animal welfare. We recommend Mindful Money's Fund Checker for complete fund screening. NZXplorer's tool focuses specifically on NZX-listed holdings transparency using the same FMA Disclose Register data.
