WELLINGTON, Nov. 8 (Xinhua) -- New Zealand's opposition National party leader John Key won a decisive victory against the Labor party in the New Zealand general elections on Saturday.

National will be able to form a new government, in a coalition with New Zealand ACT party and United Future party. John Key will be the next prime minister of New Zealand.

The following are the backgrounder of John Key:

John Key, leader the New Zealand opposition National Party, was born in Auckland and moved to Christchurch in childhood. He was educated at Burnside High School and then gained a Bachelor of Commerce from the University of Canterbury.

The 47-year-old Key launched his investment banking career in New Zealand in the mid 1980s. After 10 years in the New Zealand market he headed offshore, working in Singapore, London and Sydney for the U.S. investment banking giant Merrill Lynch. During that time he was in charge of a number of business units including global foreign exchange and European bond and derivative trading.

In 1999 John Key was invited to join the Foreign Exchange Committee of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and on two occasions undertook management studies at Harvard University in Boston.

In 2001, he headed back to New Zealand to fulfill a long held ambition to stand for Parliament for the National Party. He won the Helensville seat in Auckland in 2002 with a majority of 1589. Key has risen through the ranks since then, becoming deputy finance spokesman and then finance spokesman, rising to number 7 prior to the 2005 election.

At the 2005 election he again won the Helensville seat, this time with a majority of 12,778. He continued to be the Party's finance spokesman and was ranked number 4 before being elected Leader on Nov. 27, 2006.

Key is married to Bronagh and has two children.

John Key seems "nice enough" but his rapid rise suggests his path has been smoothed for him in advance. The fact that his career was as an investment banker is another reason to be worried. This blog is the only NZ blogs that I have found which has attempted to look into Key's background.
