FINANCIAL POSITION

STRATEGIC RELATIONSHIPS

Last fiscal year the Trust Board reported a net deficit of $188,000 due to the impacts of covid on our investment portfolios. We are pleased to report a net surplus of $6.9 million and an increase in our total assets and total revenue.

In collaboration with the Tūwharetoa Settlement Trust and Ngāti Tūwharetoa Fisheries Charitable Trust we continue to offer services, grants, and initiatives for the benefit of Tūwharetoa. Our collective approach improves administrative processes, increases the effectiveness of initiatives, and optimises resources and expertise.

10-year Forecast During the year, GHA completed an organisational review. The review recommended the Board consider a long-term view on the cashflow performance and financial position of the Trust Board. A 10-year Forecast has been developed and a sustainable spending model adopted by the Board to ensure the long-term financial stability of the organisation.

STRATEGIC FOCUS In February 2023, the Board reviewed the Mahere Rautaki Strategic Plan 2021-2026 and refined the strategic objectives of the Trust Board for the next three years. The Board assessed the role of the organisation within the current environment, identified areas of importance, determined three key objectives and goals, and prioritised the focus initiatives of the Trust Board for 2023 to 2026.

TŪWHARETOA MĀORI TRUST BOARD /// \\\ ANNUAL REPORT 2023

We continue to engage with other Tūwharetoa entities, trusts, and incorporations to develop partnerships and relationships that will create positive opportunities for our people.

COMMERCIAL LICENCING The licencing of commercial operators commenced on 1 July 2022. Fifty-one (51) businesses are now licenced to operate on Lake Taupō and the surrounding tributaries. This includes businesses that offer fishing charters, scenic boating, kayaking, rafting, jet boating, bungy, equipment hire, flyfishing guides, and companies with structures on the lakebed. A list of the approved operators can be found on our website.

PROTECTING OUR TAONGA

LEGISLATION

Freshwater Clam Incursion

There continues to be significant legislative reform, policy, and regulatory matters that impact directly on our wai and on our taiao. This has required considerable resourcing to ensure our unique perspective and position is actively relayed to crown officials and government agencies.

Corbicula Fluminea (also known as the Golden Clam or Asian Gold Clam) is a small pipi or cockle-like freshwater shellfish. Originally from East Asia, the clam has since spread to other parts of the world and in May 2023 was located in te awa o Waikato. Our Natural Resources team is working closely with other iwi and Biosecurity NZ to monitor the ongoing situation and prevent the spread of the clam into our waterways.

Of particular note for the year were the: Affordable/Three Waters Reform.

Incidents on the Water

Resource Management Act Reform.

During the year we have seen several incidents that have had a significant impact on our wai. Of major concern was a truck crash at Te Pōporo Point that resulted in a large quantity of krill oil entering the lake, and a boat fire on the lake with fuel, fluids and debris spilling into the wai. While a clean-up process was executed for both incidents the ongoing health of our wai is of utmost importance.

National Policy Statement for Indigenous Biodiversity.

When incidents occur, the Natural Resources team works closely with local and regional government, and relevant government agencies to ensure the health of Taupō Waters is respected, and the interests of our hapū and iwi are recognised. We are also seeking legal advice on what further action can be taken when incidents directly affect Taupō Waters.

Conservation Law Reforms. Healthy Rivers Plan Change 1. Trust Board Elections

TRUST BOARD ELECTIONS Under the Māori Trust Board Act 1955 we are required to convene triennial elections to appoint members to the board. The next election will be held on the 15th of February 2024. Nominations open the 15th of November 2023 and close 15th of December 2023.

Pou Taiao Pou Taiao recognises our responsibilities as kaitiaki of our moana and awa, and our obligations to our wai and the surrounding whenua.

Crown Accord The Trust Board continues to maintain the commitments agreed to with the Crown through an accord signed in 2019. The accord identifies Crown agencies that have direct connection to the interests of Ngāti Tūwharetoa. In April 2022, the Trust board entered into a 3-year joint working plan with the following focal points: Resolve unreturned riverbeds.

The Natural Resources team upholds our commitment to protect and enhance our taiao.

Notifications There continued to be significant legislative reforms conducted through-out the annual period. Given the nature of the legislation under review and the direct connection to our natural areas, the resourcing to provide our unique perspective and position has been considerable. Our environmental team received 423 notifications for the period. We provided input into resource consents, policy, and regulatory matters with our fundamental focus on Taupō Waters and the Waikato Awa. This is a significant increase from last year where we received 310 notices. We continue to engage with crown officials and have submitted on particular legislative bills. Policy and reforms of note for this year were: Affordable / Three Waters Reform.

We have also collaborated with our hapū on accidents/ incidents, clean-ups, erosion mitigation, restoration, and planting.

Local Government We continue to engage and work alongside local government agencies where there are areas of mutual interests, and with hapū to support their decision-making and connection to the taiao. Focus areas for this year included: Erosion issues and concerns. Taupō Wastewater scheme CIA process. Vehicle/boat incidents and accidents. Weed control.

Section 33 Monitoring The Section 33 monitoring involves testing the water quality of 12 tributary rivers that feed Taupō Moana. These tests are conducted on a four-week cycle by our Environmental Coordinator. The coordinator also tests 51 ground water sites on a six-week cycle. For a period from November to March of each year we also take water samples from 6 swimming areas, once a week. At present, the test samples from the tributaries and ground sites are sent away to a Waikato testing facility, and the swimming area tests are sent to a local testing facility. Data collected from these tests are housed and presented on the LAWA website. Long-term results and trends provide an extensive amount of information on the health of our wai. In the next financial year, we aim to take our unique mātauranga Māori of Tūwharetoa and combine with the learnings we have gained in western science methodology.

Taupō Moana and Waikato Awa Water Levels December 2022 to February 2023 was one of the wettest summers in recorded history. On average our Tūwharetoa rohe gets 1100mm of rain a year. In 2022, the total rainfall was 1747mm. The flow-on effect from the increased rainfall raised the levels of Waikato Awa in December 2022 to its highest levels in recorded history since 1908. Heavy rain and high-water levels also brought on flooding concerns and erosion issues, particularly in Te Mātāpuna. This caused significant challenges for Waikato Regional Council (WRC) and Mercury Energy who are responsible for ensuring the lake stays within its consented lake level range. Taupō Moana has only one outlet - the Taupō Control Gates over the Waikato Awa - which is administered and operated by Mercury. WRC issues the

TŪWHARETOA MĀORI TRUST BOARD /// \\\ ANNUAL REPORT 2023

29 |

resource consent for Mercury to operate the control gates. Throughout December and January, Mercury had the control gates open to manage the lake levels. All river outflow is measured in cubic metres per second (cumecs), and 300+ cumecs of water was being released downstream at that time. Heavy rain across the country meant Waikato Awa also rose downstream in Te Arawa, Ngāti Raukawa and Waikato-Tainui rohe. On 31 January 2023, continued rain meant significant flooding not only in our rohe but more so in the lower Waikato Awa. Water from Taupō Moana further compounded the situation. During significant flooding the management of the catchment becomes the responsibility of WRC. To reduce damage and potential risk to life to those along the Waikato Awa, WRC allowed Taupō Moana to reach 357.25 metres above sea level (masl), which is the maximum lake level allowed under the resource consent issued to Mercury. The consent granted to Mercury allows for the lake levels to go above this height during flooding events. WRC then implemented the flood management plan, assisted by Mercury, to reduce the lake levels as quickly as possible without putting the rest of the river communities at risk. It took several months to return lake levels and the river flow to a safe and manageable level.

Corbicula fluminea Freshwater Clam Incursion

continued vigilance remains as these surveys were neither comprehensive nor complete. On Tuesday 13 June 2023 a team of NIWA scientists started the survey at the Lake Taupō Landing Reserve, then progressed to sites at Waitahanui, Motutere, Motuoapa and Te Iringa Pouraka/Stump Bay. They finished the first stage of the survey on Wednesday 14 June 2023. Further surveys conducted in the Waikato Awa have unfortunately identified the presence of the clam within Lake Maraetai (Mangakino) through to the Port of Waikato. Surveys of the waterways within various catchments will continue as Biosecurity NZ monitors the ongoing situation. Corbicula Fluminea (also known as the Golden Clam or Asian Gold Clam) is a small pipi or cockle-like freshwater shellfish. Originally from East Asia, the clam has since spread to parts of North America, Australia, Africa, and Europe. It has the potential to significantly impact the entire catchment as it breeds rapidly. One clam can produce up to 400 juveniles a day and up to 70,000 juveniles a year. It has been known to clog water pipes and hydro stations in overseas locations. It is unknown how it arrived in Aotearoa, but its larvae can lodge onto boats and anything else entering the wai. As other countries have yet to successfully eliminate the clams once they are established, it is important to prevent any spread.

In May 2023, surveys conducted by Biosecurity NZ, above Lake Karapiro through to Hamilton City, confirmed the presence of Corbicula fluminea, an invasive freshwater clam species. The presence of this species led to a further delimitation survey from Lake Taupō through to the Port of Waikato. The survey was conducted at five sites on Lake Taupō with the initial results indicating no presence of the species. However, the need for

Incidents on the Water

Earthquake Update

The Trust Board acts as kaitiaki of Taupō Waters on behalf of Ngāti Tūwharetoa. When major incidents occur on Taupō Waters, the team works with Local Government, Regional Government, and the relevant government agencies to ensure the best interests of Taupō Waters and our iwi are served.

On 30 November 2022 a magnitude 5.6 earthquake occurred under the lake. It caused ground to give way at Wharewaka Point and for a large amount of material to fall into the lake at the Otūtere cliffs. To ensure the health and safety of the public, Ngāti Tutemohuta initiated a rāhui over the cliffs on Christmas Eve. That rāhui is in place to this day and is supported by the Trust Board.

In November 2022 a truck crashed at Te Pōporo Point and caused significant concern when it overturned into Taupō Moana, resulting in a large quantity of krill oil entering the water. A delegation from Ngāti Te Rangiita initiated a rāhui, which we supported and communicated out to the public by placing signs around the area and issuing an online notice. We then monitored the clean-up process to minimise further impact on our moana and the surrounding environment. We also initiated a water testing regime to monitor the ongoing health of the site, and sought legal advice on what further action could be taken against the trucking firm who caused the spill. During the December 2022 holiday season, a boat caught fire on Taupō Moana. The Taupō Harbourmaster was the first responder on the scene. The occupants of the boat were unhurt; however, the fuel tank had broken off into the water. The Harbourmaster recovered the fuel tank, cleaned the excess fuel and fluids in the water and kept our team informed as the situation unfolded.

Our team worked with Lake Taupō Forest Trust to conduct a flyover and survey the damage to the lake and surrounding land. The earthquake showed that there is a shortfall in the scientific data being collected around the lake. We worked alongside Lake Taupō Forest Trust, with the support of Dr Charlotte Severne, to improve the monitoring by GNS Science and NIWA, and to understand the impact of the earthquake on the lake. This included a bathymetric survey which mapped the shoreline at Wharewaka Point and areas of the lakebed near the Horomatangi Reef.

Mahinga Kai We encourage hapū members and tamariki to gather kai from Taupō Moana and awa by providing fishing licences and boat ramp permits. We issue free fishing licences for tamariki aged under 18 years and as part of the 2007 Deed, we receive 200 fishing licences and 162 boat ramp permits. We then purchase an additional 70 fishing licences which allow us to distribute 270 licences and 162 boat ramp permits to our marae. The licences and permits are to be used by whānau to provide kai to kaumātua and to marae for events. This year we issued 92 whānau licences, 134 individual licences, and 81 permits through marae, and 100 tamariki fishing licences.

Karapiti Implementation On 19 February 2019, a technical malfunction of the reinjection system at Well WK407 caused geothermal fluid to be redirected to a storage pond, eventually causing two significant slips into the Waipuwerawera Stream and valley. The rate of discharge into the pond continued undetected for six days enabling geothermal fluid to collect, which resulted in a failure of the pond’s ability to cope with the excess volumes. The northern side of the pond eroded due to saturation and eventual slumping into the Waipuwerawera Valley. This caused an additional slip depositing further sediment into the stream and Waikato River. An estimated 40,000m³ of sediment, ash, and pumice from the hill site and cliff deposited in waterways devastating the river margins along the way. The incident resulted in the prosecution of Contact Energy under the Resource Management Act by the Waikato Regional Council. Contact Energy committed to undertake a restorative justice process. In September 2020 a Cultural Impact Assessment identified recommendations to be implemented by Contact Energy.

TŪWHARETOA MĀORI TRUST BOARD /// \\\ ANNUAL REPORT 2023

The Karapiti Implementation Plan was created from these recommendations and identifies key projects that give effect to the restorative process: Draft a Cultural Monitoring Framework for the Waikato River. Draft a Ngāti Tūwharetoa protocols document for Contact Energy’s physical operations. Develop a cultural training module for Contact Energy staff. Assist in the development opportunities for Tūwharetoa in the environmental space. Assist with the ongoing Waipuwerawera restoration works plan.

River Float Rubbish Collection On Tuesday 25 October a group of Royal NZ Navy divers supported Ngā Kaihautū, the Taupō Harbourmaster, and Coastguard Lake Taupō to undertake a rubbish sweep of Waikato Awa. The sweep gave the Navy divers an opportunity to practice various river-diving techniques while contributing to the wellbeing of the awa. The amount of rubbish collected in such a small area caused considerable concern to Ngā Kaihautū with the roopu issuing a statement urging all river users to respect the river and to stop using it as a dumping ground.

Marae Insurance The Marae Insurance initiative was established during the 1980’s to ensure marae were safeguarded for future generations. The initial model involved the Trust Board meeting 50% of the premium costs, with the remaining 50% the responsibility of respective marae. Following a review of the scheme in 2013, the Trust Board resolved that it would meet 100% of all marae insurance premium costs. The premium provides cover for marae buildings, contents, and artworks, and kohanga reo and churches located on the Marae Reservation. This year the Trust Board paid $299,589 in marae insurance premiums for $93m of insurance cover. During this period claims were lodged by Poukura, Waitetoko, Waipahihi and Mokai marae with payments totalling $47,472.10.

I’m hoping to position myself to be of service to the rights of our people in whatever form that might take.

Dr Rev Jonathan Te Rire PhD, Te Wānanga o Awanuiārangi

The scholarship was a massive help and came at a good time for me. I decided to pay my fees rather than take out another student loan, so the grant has helped fill the hole that left in my bank account! I have two small children so can’t work as much as I was doing with study as well and it has really helped with being able to focus on studies and not stress about money too much.

He kairangahau mō te iwi me tōku hāhi, te Hinota Māori o te hāhi Perehipitiriana (a researcher into my church, especially the Māori Synod of the Presbyterian Church). The grant allowed me to complete my PhD studies by purchasing much needed resources, as well as helping with travel and accommodation, and by paying a portion towards my tuition fees. I am appreciative to the Tūwharetoa Māori Trust Board for their awhi i ā ahau.

TŪWHARETOA MĀORI TRUST BOARD /// \\\ ANNUAL REPORT 2023

Receiving the scholarship has been a tremendous relief amidst the challenges of a high cost of living. It has significantly alleviated the financial burden associated with being a student with limited income. This financial support has allowed me to cover essential expenses such as vehicle maintenance, course-related materials, and travel costs. These funds have been especially invaluable in enabling me to participate in hapū-related wānanga and facilitating my travels back to Turangi. My ultimate goal is to be a voice for my hapū, and to shake the foundations of Western Planning by implementing Mātauranga Māori and tikanga Māori. I believe that this is key to changing the behaviours that impact our environment, which in turn affects the health and wellbeing of our whānau and communities.

Kaumātua Celebration This year the Trust Board, Tūwharetoa Settlement Trust, and Ngāti Tūwharetoa Fisheries took a different approach to the annual kaumātua celebration. Instead of holding a dinner and ball, the decision was made to host a formal luncheon at the Great Lake Centre in Taupō. The celebration recognises our pakeke and kaumātua who maintain the ahi kaa of our Tūwharetoa marae. Each marae was invited to send a delegation of 10 pakeke and kaumātua, with the Trusts providing transport from Taumarunui, Tūrangi, Tokorangi and Hastings. Over 300 pakeke and kaumātua were in attendance. We acknowledge the continued support from the Ngāti Tūwharetoa Mercury Development Group and the Ngāti Tūwharetoa Genesis Energy Committee for this event.

The return of tamariki to the stage was a welcomed sight for parents, teachers, kaumātua and whānau. 53 groups, 2500 kaihaka, and over 2500 spectators attended over the three days. The addition of an adult group from Ngāti Hinemihi highlighted a need to encourage kapa haka participation beyond school to ensure its sustainability in Tūwharetoa.

Taupō Moana was returned to Tūwharetoa Māori Trust Board on behalf of and for the benefit of Ngāti Tūwharetoa in 1992. In 1999, the titles to the beds of several rivers and streams flowing into Taupō Moana were transferred from the Crown to the Trust Board. In 2007, the 1992 deed was enhanced. This new deed reaffirmed the Trust Board has the full ownership rights of Taupō Moana, the tributaries that were returned to the iwi in 1999, and Waikato Awa to Te Toka a Tia. These waters are collectively called ‘Taupō Waters’. Several local businesses disputed the Trust Boards right to issue and charge for licenses to operate on Taupō Waters. The Trust Board applied to the High Court in 2017 for a Declaratory Judgment to clarify our property rights. In 2021, the High Court judgment reaffirmed the Trust Boards property rights, which include the right to issue commercial licences to businesses operating on Taupō Waters.

Due to the enormity of the commercial licensing programme, a staged approach has been undertaken to licence commercial operators on Taupō Waters. The first stage of the programme commenced on 1 July 2022 with the licensing of operators on Lake Taupō, Waikato River and Tongariro River. These are primarily fishing and scenic boat operators, kayak, rafting, jet boat, and bungy businesses, equipment hire operators and businesses with fixtures on the lakebed. In February 2023 the licensing of operators on other tributaries commenced. These are the rivers and streams that flow into Taupō Moana. These are primarily fly-fishing guides, including accommodation lodges that offer in-house fly-fishing options, and fishing vloggers (video bloggers). The charging model adopted for our commercial licensing programme is based on similar regimes instituted by local council and Crown entities.

Compliance

Cultural & Environmental Protocols

A list of approved operators is listed on our website, they are also issued with an approved operator card. We will be completing compliance checks which includes self-policing by approved operators, licence reviews, and mystery shopper surveys.

The development and implementation of Cultural Protocols ensures operators observe rāhui, keep away from wāhi tapu such as Motutāiko, and stay away from urupā and pā/marae which are on the shores of Taupō Moana. Activities such as scattering human ashes and releasing foreign matter into, onto and over our waters are strictly prohibited.

Tūwharetoa Commercial Operators The Commerce Commission requires all commercial operators be treated the same under the commercial licensing programme. The Taupō Hole in One Challenge, Chris Jolly Outdoors and Big Sky Parasail, which are owned by the Trust Boards commercial subsidiary Taupō Moana Group Holdings, undergo the same commercial licensing requirements as other Tūwharetoa and non-Tūwharetoa operators.

The General Public

The Environmental Protocols define how licence holders should treat the taiao when they operate on our waters. Licence holders cannot under any circumstances dump rubbish, fuel, chemicals, or any other para (pollutants or rubbish) into the wai. There are several standards and conditions included in these extensive protocols to protect the tapu and mauri of our taiao and wai, while keeping our rohe free from pollutants.

The licensing scheme does not apply to the public or anyone who wants to enjoy our wai. As per our Trust Deed, Taupō Waters will always be open to the public for ‘non-exclusive, non-commercial recreational use and enjoyment’.

Elections

Events, Filming & Photography

Voting will open 15 January and close 15 February 2024. Registered beneficiaries of the Trust Board will be eligible to vote with new trustees confirmed and ratified by the Governor General shortly after.

An important part of our licensing programme is the issuing of permissions for commercial event operators, filmmakers, photographers, drone operators and vloggers. As Taupō Waters is the venue for many sporting events and fishing competitions, they too need to seek a commercial licence to operate. Protocols for these types of commercial operations have been implemented to protect our indigenous knowledge and intellectual property, sites of significance, and waahi tapu. This year the Trust Board approved 60 applications for 35 events, 15 filming and photography, and 10 fishing competitions.

TAUPŌ WATERS TRUS T

The Taupō Waters Trust was established by the Trust Board, and holds title to: Taupō-Nui-a-Tia Block Te Awa o Waikato ki te Toka o Tia Block; and Te hokianga mai o te papa o ngā awa ki te Poari hei kaitiaki o ngā hapū o Ngāti Tūwharetoa.

These titles are collectively known as “Taupō Waters” and have been vested in the Taupō Waters Trust by the Māori Land Court as Māori Freehold land. Taupō Waters includes the bed of Lake Taupō, the space occupied by the water of the lake, the tributaries flowing into the lake and the Waikato River from the outlet of Lake Taupō to the Rock of Tia (inclusive of the Huka Falls). TWT advances the ownership rights and responsibilities on Taupō Waters with commercial licences administered through the Trust. It has also established a commercial subsidiary, Taupō Moana Group Holdings Ltd.

TŪWHARETOA MĀORI TRUST BOARD /// \\\ ANNUAL REPORT 2023

Revenue Revenue for TWT is generated from the easement with Mercury Energy for use of Taupō Waters, as well as license fees charged to Commercial Operators and various other parties who perform business activities on or around Lake Taupō. Commercial licensing revenue increased this financial year as more commercial operators requested licenses for business activities and events on Lake Taupō.

Net assets of the Trust have increased by $1.9m (6.3%) from the previous year. This result was driven by increases in term deposit investments held and goodwill relating to the TMGH Parasail acquisition purchased by its subsidiary Taupō Moana Group Holdings Ltd.

Site Development The lease for the larger site has been secured and changes to the Reserves Act now sees the planned development move to the resource consent phase with a view of being up and running in 2024/2025 summer. An all-weather covered site with an extra golf bay, food and beverage, and activity booking facility will be the main focus and will complement the new parasail site. A new Golf ball launcher product has also been developed as a New Zealand (maybe world) first and will be installed in December 2023. This will further increase the revenue and wider appeal of this business. The new development will not only improve business performance and enhance the waterfront of Taupō but will increase Ngāti Tūwharetoa presence in the area.

TMGH Jolly Ltd

Tourism Intern Programme

TMGH Jolly was set-up well for the summer of 2022-2023 and despite poor weather produced a positive result well ahead of all expectations. A number of new guiding and walk products have also been developed which have proved to be highly successful with a continued increase in the market share evident. Collaboration with HIO on co-marketing and shared services has also had a positive impact on the business. A cultural program leader was appointed to continue to improve this area of the business and also mentor and coordinate our Tūwharetoa Tourism Intern programme. The outlook for the next year shows continued growth and business improvement.

The history of the internship programme stems back to 2017 and the first tourism acquisition by TMGH of the Lake Taupō Hole in One Challenge. As part of the strategic vision of the Trust Board, one of the key pūtake for TMGH is to use the commercial entities as a pipeline to ensure meaningful employment opportunities with qualification advancement for uri of Ngāti Tūwharetoa. Pre-covid, 35% of the region’s workforce was tourismbased with a need to employ more Ngāti Tūwharetoa to support a more localised and authentic experience. An opportunity presented itself to apply for the Te Puni Kōkiri cadetship programme fund which was established in 2010 to support kaitono (employers) to develop, mentor and train permanent Māori staff at all career stages into higher-skilled roles. HIO and TMGH Jolly Ltd have successfully completed two Te Puni Kōkiri cadetship programmes. In 2021 it was decided that the second cadetship would be a jointly shared programme as part of a contingency plan

to mitigate impacts of the pandemic and future-proof the businesses by creating succession pathways. The internship consists of a six-month comprehensive workbased training programme for tauira to gain a broad understanding across all entities and the varying roles that will give them transferrable skills, competencies, knowledge, and experience along with NZQA qualifications.

Mt Ruapehu Gondola Investment Tūwharetoa Gondola Ltd (TGL) which holds the bond on behalf of Tūwharetoa entities, including the Trust Board, has been working tirelessly to protect the bond as the liquidator of Ruapehu Alpine Lifts works thorough their current process.

Currently, we are in our third and last internship in collaboration with Te Puni Kōkiri and have three tauira from around the rohe. With the skills shortages across the country and lack of value rangatahi place on a career within the industry, we must be market leaders and advocate that tourism is a viable career with the multitude of roles it requires to operate a tourism business. The expansion of HIO and the purchase of Taupō Parasail provides further opportunities for delivering specialist training in the industry in conjunction with tertiary providers, ultimately benefiting our businesses and Ngāti Tūwharetoa.

The Tūwharetoa Māori Trust Board has portfolios invested in a suite of institutional grade fund managers, which take Socially Responsible Investment and climate change into account. Portfolio balances bounced higher in the year to June 2023, and performance remains solid over the long term and relative to funds with similar risk levels in the marketplace.

An overview of the asset allocation and performance of the two portfolios is outlined on the following page (the data is as at 30 June 2023). The TMTB portfolio returned 7.2% in the year to June, while the Waikato River portfolio, which has a higher allocation to growth assets, returned 9.3%. Over the longer run both portfolios have massively outperformed cash despite their year-to-year volatility.

The governance of the funds is in accordance with comprehensive Investment Policy Statements covering separate asset types, which collectively form the investment framework.

A feature of their portfolios is that climate change risks are considered by selecting managers who take greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions into account. As shown in the graphic below, this resulted in GHG emissions being more than halved in global equities compared to the market overall. More broadly, funds selected for the portfolios have high Responsible Investment standards, which we believe is important for alignment to our values.

There are two diversified portfolios, the Tūwharetoa Māori Trust Board (TMTB) portfolio and the Tūwharetoa Māori Trust Board Waikato River portfolio. The portfolios have different purposes, objectives, and beneficiaries, and are treated as unique portfolios. The TMTB governance role is supported by our investment adviser MyFiduciary, ensuring the policy is implemented and investments are of a high standard.

Our performance benchmarking suggests these performances have been amongst the strongest in New Zealand for the level of risk (allocation to growth assets) taken over at least the last five years. In part, this is because the portfolios have been positioned to weather the increasing inflation and interest rate environment through allocations to short-term bonds and assets such as gold and listed infrastructure.
