Public Trust

Public Trust is New Zealand's largest and oldest trustee organisation, set up in 1873 with a unique mandate to protect the future of New Zealanders. We offer independent, professional advice and a wide range of legal and financial services to help you. But our role is different from others, like banks and lawyers, who may offer similar services. In fact we even have our own act of parliament to protect your interests.

What do we do? We provide New Zealanders with the legal and financial expertise and services they need at different stages of their life – and after death. Your best interests lie at the heart of our business. Our role is to protect your future – and those of your family and the generations to come.

How can we help you? Whatever stage of life you are at we can help you get things in order. We can help you… - Make your Will and enduring powers of attorney - Buy your own home - Get your finances and taxes sorted - Grow your wealth and protect it for the future - Provide for your family and their education - Provide for people with special needs - Plan for a comfortable retirement - Plan ahead for your funeral and final costs - Manage your affairs if you can’t manage alone - By carrying out your last wishes - By looking after your estate and beneficiaries
