Kiwibank Limited is a New Zealand state-owned bank and financial services provider. As of 2023, Kiwibank is the fifth-largest bank in New Zealand by assets, and the largest New Zealand-owned bank, with a market share of approximately 9%. In December 2023, the bank's assets totaled about $35 billion.
Kiwibank was established in 2001 by the Fifth Labour Government of New Zealand, following a proposal by then Deputy Prime Minister Jim Anderton, to set up a locally owned bank capable of competing with the Big Four Australian banks which dominated the domestic market. Initially, it operated as a subsidiary of New Zealand Post, with branches originally co-located within PostShops (post offices) to ensure nationwide accessibility.
