New Zealand Prime Minister Christopher Luxon will cut the 2026 operating budget to NZ$2.1B ($1.25B) to reach a surplus by 2029. The package is NZ$300M lower than the NZ$2.4B allowance set in December. Investors are monitoring fiscal discipline as the government balances infrastructure needs against a weak domestic economy.
