About Us

Welcome
www.interest.co.nz is the market-leading resource for interest-rate comparatives in New Zealand. It is the only truly comprehensive source of all interest rates, and is updated many times each day. It is a service by JDJL Limited of Auckland.
This service was established in 1999 and has grown to be a key source of research on banks and other financial institutions that provide both lending and deposit products to the New Zealand market. Behind this live-and-free on-line resource are extensive databases, and a market intelligence service that supports many clients. JDJL is completely independent of every financial institution and adviser group in the market. David Chaston directs a number of professional analysts, who generate a range of research, as well as institutional and media rate feeds.

Until recently, we were priviledged to have Kevin Mitchelson working with us as a senior analyst. Sadly he has passed away. We miss him.
