This literature review has been prepared for the Kāinga Tahi Kāinga Rua research direction as part of the Building Better Homes, Towns and Cities National Science Challenge by members of the Whai Rawa Whenu: Economics and financing of housing for Māori. The literature review has focused on economic and financial structural and regulatory approaches to Māori housing, to investigate the barriers and bridges to opportunities for Māori that were foreshadowed in the Annotated Bibliography of Māori and Indigenous Housing (Menzies, 2018a). The purpose of this literature review is to set the platform for further quantitative and qualitative research on Māori housing.
