Since 1973 The New Zealand Anglican Church Pension Board has been offering mortgage finance. We offer competitive interest rates to Christian KiwiSaver Scheme members and Christians of all denominations. Our regular rates are 97.5% of the averaged rates of the five major banks. We also offer special rates for mortgages over $100,000.

We offer both table and interest-only mortgages. Finance is also available for new builds. We require a 20% deposit, regardless of whether it is owner-occupied or an investment property.

Returns earned from mortgages are put back into the Board’s funds to serve our Christian mission, not into shareholder’s pockets like at a bank. The returns also form part of the investment portfolio for Christian KiwiSaver Scheme.

The staff at the Board are here to help you with any questions you might have regarding your mortgage or potential finance. Customer service is one of our strengths.

Celebrating a new name

Celebrating a new name

We’re thrilled to announce that our KiwiSaver scheme has a new name, Christian KiwiSaver Scheme.

We’re still the only KiwiSaver scheme specially designed for, and provided by, Christians.

We undertook some brand and name testing during 2017 and you might have been one of the members we surveyed. Among the names proposed there was a clear preference for Christian KiwiSaver Scheme to be the Scheme’s new name.

A change of name is not something we took on lightly. We’ve been offering a KiwiSaver scheme successfully under the Koinonia brand since 2007. However, we were finding that ‘Koinonia’ did not quickly and easily say what our Scheme was all about. Some people also have difficulty pronouncing and spelling Koinonia which was making it harder to find us.

‘Ethical at heart’, our new tagline, is a phrase you will see us use a lot.  That’s because our ethical approach goes well beyond having an ethical investment policy. We apply Christian values to the way we conduct our business and interact with you, our members, and others. It’s the way we’ve always done it.

Our new website address is www.christiankiwisaver.nz and we also have a new email address info@christiankiwisaver.nz. Have a look at the new website. We’ve grouped the information differently and added some interesting new content.

You’ll notice a few tweaks to the Member Login pages. Check these out. If you have forgotten your password contact us and we’ll set a new password for you.

Give us a call on (04) 473 9369 if you’d like to talk about your account or pop into our office at Anglican House, 32 Mulgrave St, Thorndon, Wellington, and talk to one of our knowledgeable staff face to face over a cup of tea.

Christian KiwiSaver Scheme is open to Christians of all denominations. Tell your family, friends and colleagues about us.
