    Suppose it depends on your time frame. If you are looking at holding the Z bonds until maturity you may be better looking at perpetuals. Especially those that are likely to be bought back. But if you are only in it for the year or two then maybe the Z bonds will serve you well. Any sudden rise in OCR could lead to you taking a capital loss on them.

    Practically, they are fixed rate senior bonds and should be easily tradeable. Greenstone (their earlier issue) opened in October last year at 7.35% and now trade at a yield around 6.6%

    A quote attributed to Margaret Thatcher goes along the lines of
    "The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money."

    The market seems to be huge for these. ASB Securities limited them to 5000 per client. Hopefully the high demand will make them easily tradeable.

    Joshuatree As RABO BANK will give you 5.55% for 5 years & far better security. My thoughts is it not enough value to tie money up for 7 years 3 months after reading the prospectous

    Joshuatree yes they can be traded but unless you have large amounts it is not practical 7 I do not think they will ever trade at a Premium. Possibly okay if you are going to buy a 100 grands worth but then you have to find a large buyer
