Rangatira Investments
Finding the right balance
Ours is an investment company that recognises
commercial acumen and genuine care for people.
For Rangatira Investments, 2025 marks a legacy of
88 years of investment in strong New Zealand
commercial enterprises with steady, sustainable returns
for our shareholders, including the J R McKenzie Trust
and our other charities.
For our private investments, we provide funding
support and surety, and for our charities, we provide
not only reliable income, but hope. This year, more
than ever, ‘holding the line’ is important in the face
of unprecedented global events, particularly those
affecting our New Zealand economy and New
Zealanders directly.
In this annual report we feature a recent acquisition
from last year - Northland Waste, and a charity
celebrating 50 years since being introduced to Sir Roy
McKenzie and Lady Shirley - Music Therapy NZ.

Both organisations have a very focused and particular
role to play in the community: Northland Waste –
in collecting and managing waste; Music Therapy
NZ in music therapy practice. What we didn’t expect,
were the synergies and common ground between
the two. Both organisations demonstrated qualities
of understated humbleness, resourcefulness, and
flexibility. Their leadership style is grounded and
practical, fuelled with a quiet optimism.
You’ll read in this annual report their stories of proven
track records alongside potential. Rigorous customer
focus matched to a strong internal culture.
Rangatira Investments is proud of the 88 years
of progress we’ve made in delivering returns on
investments for shareholders and in supporting
New Zealanders and the communities we are part of.
