Reserve Bank to pay $140m dividend from FX gains in greener years

The Reserve Bank will pay a $140 million dividend to the government, using up some of the near $1 billion of investment gains built up from prior years.

The central bank paid a $510 million dividend to the government in 2015, a year when a falling kiwi dollar generated gains for the Reserve Bank’s holdings of overseas currencies. The Reserve Bank’s dividend policy is to distribute excess equity to the Crown, and should generally hold on to unrealised gains unless it believes there’s a high probability of that windfall being crystallised.

Comvita board proposes increased fee pool to hire tech-experienced director

The board of Comvita, the manuka honey products company, is proposing to increase its pool for directors’ fees so it can hire a new director with technology experience.

In its notice of annual meeting, Comvita’s board recommends increasing the maximum pool of total director remuneration by $60,000 to $610,000, the equivalent of an annual fee for one director.

The pool was increased by $100,000 at Comvita’s annual meeting last year, with a 25.3% increase in per-director fees over two years, partly conditional on earnings per share increases which were met.
