Most people check their KiwiSaver every now and then… but very few people realise how much the decisions they make today can impact their retirement later on.
The challenge is that the biggest winners only look obvious in hindsight. Ten years ago, Nvidia was just another stock. Today, everyone wishes they bought it.
This week on Beat the Bank, Ben sits down with Marek Krzeczkowski – Head of Investment Strategy & Quant at Smart – to unpack why most investors struggle to pick winning stocks, the role diversification plays in building long-term wealth, and why ETFs have become one of the fastest-growing ways to invest.
They also break down the biggest mistakes beginners make, how thematic investing actually works, and why trying to find the next big winner is often harder than people think.
