NEW ZEALAND COMPANIES OFFICE

We haven't visited the New Zealand Ministry of Economic Development for five years and that's just too long in e-time. Find intriguing profiles of New Zealand companies here, the official site of the registry. Information includes more than contact information. A list of directors, shares held and a few years' worth of annual reports are the best finds in this corner of the offerings. The search menu includes options to search for the previous names of companies, to search by directors or shareholders and – here's hoping you don't need this one – to search by banned director or manager. Don't miss this one: Charitable trusts and other entities are searchable through the Search Other Registries option from the home page.

NEW ZEALAND COMPANY INFORMATION

Researchers always keep their best friends in mind. Who are your best friends, you ask? Librarians, of course! The University of Aukland Library developed a grand Company Guide. Your visit to this e-library begins with an orientation, the "Overview and Search Strategies" section. After that quick read, just drill down through the choices that include Profiles, Rankings, Directories, Journal Articles, Annual Reports and more.
