Hi. We're Booster.

Founded in 1998

Set up by a group of experienced industry experts, Booster (or, back then, Grosvenor Financial Services Group) knew there was a better way to help New Zealanders to save. We wanted to offer something unique to what the international conglomerates were offering.

The Grosvenor KiwiSaver Scheme is launched

Appointed as a default KiwiSaver scheme provider

Our KiwiSaver scheme is making waves in the industry. So much so, we’re appointed by the New Zealand government as a default KiwiSaver scheme provider.

Responsible Investment Association Australasia (RIAA) accreditation

We become the first KiwiSaver scheme provider to offer independently certified socially responsible investment funds. Our SRI funds are accredited by RIAA.

We changed our name to Booster!

We knew it was time for a change. We wanted to update how we presented ourselves in the market to better reflect who we are, and where we’re headed. Booster captures our energy and ethos.

Booster Tahi launched

We saw an opportunity to invest in successful New Zealand companies but couldn’t find an existing investment fund offering the long-term, yield focus and partnering approach that we wanted. So, we created our own.

NZ Innovation Booster fund launched

We formed a partnership with Wellington UniVentures (previously Viclink) to provide funding to commercialise world-leading innovations and breakthrough research coming out of Victoria University.

CoGo accreditation

Booster becomes the first accredited financial services provider with CoGo and awarded their new Responsible Investing badge - developed in conjunction with RIAA.

Private Land and Property Fund (PLPF) launched

PLPF is a specialised portfolio of unlisted New Zealand agricultural and horticultural land and other property investments.

120,000 members milestone reached!

PLPF listed on the NZX

We listed PLPF on the NXZ to open up access and offer more flexibility for retail investors.

Booster becomes Living Wage accredited

This achievement marks our ongoing commitment to help New Zealanders live financially secure lives.

Booster launches Budget builder

We want to help our members make sense of money. So, we designed a money management tool, Budget builder, to help our members get a handle on their spending.

Booster purchases Mahana Estates and Booster Wine Group is formed

A unique gravity-fed wine-making site, Mahana Estates is a significant addition to the Tahi portfolio.
