With shares held by individuals becoming increasingly fractionated but shares held in whānau trusts being relatively stable, I foresee a time when these whānau trusts will be major shareholders in trusts and incorporations.
With the focus of the recent review on increased productivity of land, let’s not forget the many trusts and incorporations that already do a great job and are success stories that have been celebrated this weekend.
