John Key | idth=15%|Parl. | width=40%|Electorate | width=15%|List Pos. | width=30%|Party | font size=-2>47th | Helensville | 43 | National | John Phillip Key (9 August 1961 - ) is a New Zealand politician. He is a member of the National Party. Before entering politics, Key was an investment banker, having worked for Merrill Lynch's London office and as a member of the Foreign Exchange Committee of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Although Key was born into a low-income family, he is believed to be New Zealand's richest MP. In 2001, he returned to New Zealand to pursue a political career. In the 2002 elections, he was the National Party's candidate for Helensville. His candidacy was controversial, as he was selected ahead of sitting MP Brian Neeson — Neeson contested the seat as an independent, accusing his party of betrayal, but Key was nevertheless victorious. In August 2004, he was ranked at tenth place in the National caucus, and made the party's spokesperson for finance. It is expected that if National wins the next elections, he will become Minister of Finance. Key, John Key, John Key, John
