New Zealand Finance Minister Grant Robertson will visit Australia's Canberra on Friday where he will meet with Australian political and business leaders to discuss the actions both governments are taking on the economic impacts of COVID-19.

"As we respond to this global health crisis it is important to keep in regular contact with our closest neighbor and trading partner," Robertson said in a statement.

"We will compare notes on how our two economies are reacting to the uncertain situation presented by the global spread of COVID-19 and discuss our plans to get our people through the outbreak," Robertson said.

The ministers will also discuss the strong economic relationship between New Zealand and Australia, and the opportunities for the further deepening of these ties, the minister said.
