Dear <<First Name>>,

Greetings from INZBC!

New Year’s greetings. I trust you and your family are well. I am sure we all share the strong wish that in early in 2022 we can resume a normal business and social life. Meanwhile, we are still in the Red light alert level, we urge you all to take the necessary precautions, and hopefully New Zealand can soon re-join the international community and put the uncertainty and disruption of the past two years behind us.  

India's Union Budget 2022 was released on 1 Feb 2022, by the Finance minister, Nirmala Seetharaman, who said that the Budget gives a blueprint of economy from India at 75 to India at 100, citing the four pillars of development — inclusive development, productivity enhancement, energy transition and climate action. Highlights of the budget can be found below.

In this newsletter, we have shared details of upcoming trade events, and other industry news from India and New Zealand.


Thanks & Regards,


Earl Rattray

Asia elections in 2022 to have flow-on effects in New Zealand:
Simon Draper, executive director of the Asia New Zealand Foundation Te Whītau Tūhono.

As we enter a new year dominated by the “two’s”, 2022, we are reminded that even in foreign exchange markets there is always two sides to the story.
