Brad Olsen: Economists predict up to 20,000 Kiwis could move to Australia alone as border reopens

Early Edition with Ryan Bridge · Mar 1, 2022 · 3m

From this morning any Kiwis coming home from Aussie do not need to self-isolate and no MIQ.

But with the welcome mat opening for KIwis round the world, it also means we can leave New Zealand too.

ANZ economists are warning about 20,000 Kiwis will move to Australia alone.

With a large outflow of people, this is warned to increase our worker shortage and add demand to our labour market.

Infometrics Senior Economist Brad Olsen joined Kate Hawkesby.
