Waikato Management School Case Competition

B Semester 2014 - 15 October 2014

Details of the Case
Company Name
Case Synopsis In 1995 Waikato Tainui became the first iwi to settle with the Crown over Raupatu (land confiscation) providing a $170m legacy in the form of land and cash. Tainui Group Holdings has been the investment arm of Waikato Tainui that has been responsible for generating a commercial return from those assets. By 2014 TGH had built a portfolio with $841m under investment. But TGH was also a company in transition in 2014. Broadening the portfolio from being property-centric while making key decisions on the role TGH would play moving forward on the Ruakura inland port were central elements in building the right long-term investment profile for TGH.
