WELCOME TO PERRIAM & PARTNERS


The first thing you need to know about us is that we are really good at our job, the second is that this website is updated weekly, yes weekly, and the third, it's the very reason why we come to work "passion, purpose and profit".


Perriams' success is built on forging personal relationships with our clients. Simply put, the more we invest in understanding you, your family and your business, the more valuable the insight we can offer. 


When a website doesn't include "last updated" on it's content, it begs the question "did it happen today, yesterday or 10 years ago?!" Well Perriam & Partners is about today and tomorrow. 

THE PACESETTER - 18 March 2024
 

OPINION

Our modern lifestyle is dramatically different from the way early man, and even more recent ancestors lived. Would their brains adapt if they were here today or have our brains rewired over time? 


OF INTEREST

Rolleston, just south of Christchurch and part of the Selwyn District, is perhaps New Zealand's fastest-growing town. If Rolleston keeps growing at the rate that it is, in 15 years it will be the same size as Dunedin. 


HOT TOPIC

For those with a bit of Irish heritage, and for those of us that don’t, we hope you enjoyed a pint or two of Guinness yesterday on St Paddy’s Day. 


SPOTLIGHT

Hold your horses, and that includes the Crusaders horses. While the Crusaders are at 0 – 4 all they need to do is to make the top 8 in the Super Rugby competition.


GEM OF THE WEEK

If you saw the game between the Warriors and the Melbourne Storm, then you would have seen the last try on full time for the Storm to snatch the win from the Warriors. What a gem!


QUOTE OF THE WEEK

“Look well into thyself; there is a source of strength which will always spring up if thou wilt always look” – Marcus Aurelius.


THE MARKETS

New Zealand consumers have really pulled back on spending, so much so that the current spend equates back to the spend it was in 2017. Retail has been hit the hardest.
