The article is devoted to the analysis of culturally marked collocations in the economic discourse of New Zealand. The study of collocations has gained momentum and become the subject of multiple studies connected with the interest for their formation, combinability, translation and stylistic connotations. However, collocations in the New Zealand economic discourse have hardly been explored before, hence it defines the relevance of this study. The purpose of this research is to identify semantic and cultural peculiarities of collocations in the New Zealand variant of English. The article presents statistic data on the frequency of various conceptual types of collocations in newspaper sections. The frequency of collocations used is determined by the quantitative analysis, while the description of the examples chosen has been given using contextual analysis and descriptive methods. Special attention is paid to the cultural specifics of collocations that reflect history, lifestyle, and traditions of the New Zealanders.
