Legal ServicesAuckland, New Zealand501-1000 Employees

We are an autonomous Crown entity and New Zealand’s largest provider of estate planning and management services, helping Kiwis with their important life planning, including writing their wills, putting enduring powers of attorney (EPAs) in place, and administering the estates of their loved ones.

We’ve been here since 1873 when we were established as the world’s first public trustee services organisation to protect the estates of some of New Zealand’s most vulnerable people. Since then, we have helped over 2.3 million Kiwis protect their legacies. We are also one of the country’s largest charitable trust administrators and advisers, helping more than 420 charities to set up trusts and distribute funds back to our communities.

Our Investments team manages around $1.2bn of funds, primarily for charities, estate beneficiaries and students.

Our Corporate Trustee Services supervise New Zealand businesses to help ensure consumer and investor trust in the financial system is maintained. This includes supervision, custody and acting as corporate trustee.
