ANZ NZ chief executive Antonia Watson said :-

ANZ NZ chief executive Antonia Watson said there would be a need for ongoing support in the form of donations, funding, and finance initiatives to deal with the impacts of the cyclone.

“Tragically, lives have been lost and livelihoods destroyed. Yet, what has struck me time and time again has been the response of New Zealanders – their resilience and concern for others ahead of themselves,” Ms Watson said.

“In times like this when we come together as a nation we see a phenomenal effort. The generosity we’ve seen from people donating their time, money, food and shelter to those in need has been incredible.”
