Finance Minister Nicola Willis is looking at upping the amount employees and employers contribute to their KiwiSaver accounts.

Simplicity co-founder Sam Stubbs has voiced support with these proposed changes.
"It's a recognition of the fact that we just have to save more for our retirement - because unless we do, national superannuation and the cost of health will eat up our current tax base."
