New Zealand companies with the most cash on hand
It's no secret that a large cash pile can be a tried and tested insurance policy in the face of good-old volatility. And these companies are taking that knowledge very seriously, as they're currently sitting on oodles of cash reserves. On the other hand though, perhaps these businesses are hoarding their capital when they should be using it to maximize shareholder value instead. Whatever your take, here's a list of the most cash rich companies in New Zealand.
