Return to Koinonia Home
 

Welcome to the Koinonia Fund, an ethically invested KiwiSaver scheme for the Christian community in New Zealand.

KOINONIA is the anglicisation of a Greek word. The word is used in the New Testament of the Bible to describe the relationship within the early Christian church. The essential meaning of koinonia embraces concepts conveyed in the English terms fellowship, association, community, communion, joint participation, and sharing.

The Anglican Church in Aotearoa, New Zealand and Polynesia and the Trustees offer the Koinonia Fund as a further extension of the Anglican Church’s service to Christians and Christian organisations. Membership is offered to:

  • employees of organisations whose primary activities are, in the Trustees’ opinion, Christian mission or ministry; and
  • other persons who the Trustees consider serve their Christian church in a particular way, or who have otherwise expressed a commitment to Christian activity and/or outreach; and
  • members of those employees’ or other persons’ immediate families.

By selecting the Koinonia Fund as your KiwiSaver scheme, your funds will be:

  • invested under an ethical investment policy that the Trustees believe reflects Christian values; and

  • administered by a not-for-profit Christian organisation.

The Koinonia Fund is operated by The New Zealand Anglican Church Pension Board, which has been administering superannuation funds since 1972.
