  • Earthquake bonds at 4%. One year duration, would you buy any.

    So, totally theoretically,

    If the NZ Govt wanted to repair the earthquake damage and instead of borrowing from overseas,
    It offered New Zealanders the chance to buy Earthquake Bonds, would you go for it?

    Depending on the Yield and duration, and inflation proofing, I certainly would.
    They would have to be non tradable to work best. Just a deal with you and your future taxable you.

    As you probably know, I'm always looking for ways to improve our economy without destroying the quality and functionality of practical life.
    And this seems like a good way to kill two birds with one stone.

    Thoughts?
