Anthony George "Aussie" Malcolm (11 December 1940 – 11 September 2024) was a New Zealand National Party politician. He served three terms in parliament (1975–1984) and was a cabinet minister in Robert Muldoon's government. After politics, Malcolm became involved with the New Zealand team in the America's Cup campaign. Later, he formed what became the country's largest dive charter company, but lost his wife in a diving incident in 2000.
Malcolm died in 2024, and a few days later it was revealed he had been under investigation by police for sexual abuse of children.
