In New Zealand up to 12 November, we have been very lucky with only 33 deaths and less than 8,000 (7945) confirmed cases of COVID-19.
This is an CFR (see below) of just over 0.415% (33/7945 ~ 0.004153).
PANDA says
According to the World Health Organisation, the mean infection fatality rate (“IFR”) for COVID-19 is less than 0.2%.

Below are the latest stats from WHO:
Globally, as of 4:32pm CET, 12 November 2021, there have been 251,788,329 confirmed cases of COVID-19, including 5,077,907 deaths, reported to WHO. As of 10 November 2021.
This gives an CFR of
5,077,907/251,788,329 = 0.020167 or just over 2%.

The recent paper referred to by PANDA is only a preprint. This means that it has not yet been published.
It has also not been peer reviewed. This means that no recognised experts have considered the paper.
The data was from studies done in 2020.

Data Synthesis Twenty-three seroprevalence surveys representing 14 countries were included. Across all countries, the median IFR in community-dwelling elderly and elderly overall was 2.4%.
