The centrepiece of New Zealand’s 2025 Budget is a massive business tax incentive grandly titled “Investment Boost.” By the Government’s own admission, it’s inspired by the Muldoon-era “Think Big” schemes – and it shows.

In theory, this is meant to spur investment, productivity and wage growth. In practice, it’s an uncapped, potentially bottomless subsidy to capital.
